Odor-mediated behavioral tasks in zebrafish. (A) Odor-elicited swimming behaviors experimental setup. Individual fish are placed in either a rectangular or circular (not shown) experimental tank with two odorant delivery tubes collinearly positioned. An odorant is administered in one tube while water is simultaneously delivered in the other tube. Fish swimming patterns are recorded with a video camera (not shown); (B) Swimming trajectory of zebrafish after (top) odorant or (bottom) water exposure. Both swimming trajectory and time spent in each quadrant can be assessed with this test. This example depicts one of several swimming parameters that can be studied using this experimental setup.
