Abstract:The zebrafish has emerged as an important vertebrate model for genetic screens and new drug development due to its significant characteristics such as optical transparency, rapid ex vivo growth, and high genetic similarity to humans. Despite these benefits, the scale of zebrafish studies is still limited as a result of the lack of a robust method to manipulate zebrafish during screening. In this work a new microfluidic channel layout in conjunction with a series of magnetically actuated artificial cilia were e… Show more
The developed 3-D rotation control scheme is able to be applied to injection of various organs in zebrafish larva body for different experimental requirements.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
