چکیده
was vacuum-formed from one piece of clear tenite (Lus-Trus Corporation, Ypsilanti, Michigan). The trough is 5 cm wide, 10 cm deep, and filled with water to a depth of 5 cm. The trough is rotated 2 rpm on a turntable in a darkened chamber. The alternative of rotating the stimulus light, photoconductors, and electrodes around the stationary trough seemed less convenient. The stimulus light is a divergent, horizontal beam given by a photo-

Retinal morphology and retinomotor response in Caspian kutum (Rutilus frisii subsp. kutum)
In this study, the morphology and organization of the retina of Caspian kutum and fish response to ambient light as retinomotor reaction was investigated. The Rutilus frisii subsp. kutum is an anadromous fish and important native fish specimen of Caspian Sea. The specimens were obtained from Shahid Ansari Teleost Reproduction and Culture center (Guilan province, Iran). For light and dark adapta...
متن کاملMethods for chronic neural recording in the telencephalon of freely behaving fish.
We have adapted for use in fish several of the procedures employed for recording single neuron activity in freely behaving rodents. Developing a method for single unit chronic recording in freely behaving fish was motivated by a need for a comparison across taxa of telencephalic neural activity evoked during spatial navigation by animals of their environments. However, the procedures outlined h...
متن کاملEffect of aerobic exercise and fish oil supplements on plasma levels of inflammatory indexes in mice
Background: Exercise has positive and negative effects on immune system. Herein, we would like to investigate the effects of incremental aerobic training and fish oil supplementation on the plasma levels of CRP, CPK and IL-17 in trained mice. One of the major roles of immune system is to produce soluble or cellular components that provide the immunity against inflammatory agent. The purpo...
متن کاملAutomated visual choice discrimination learning in zebrafish (Danio rerio).
Training experimental animals to discriminate between different visual stimuli has been an important tool in cognitive neuroscience as well as in vision research for many decades. Current methods used for visual choice discrimination training of zebrafish require human observers for response tracking, stimulus presentation and reward delivery and, consequently, are very labor intensive and poss...
متن کاملA Non-invasive Electrophysiological Study on the Enhancement of Hearing Ability in Fishes
Traditionally the study of fish hearing is achieved either by psychophysical method (e.g., behavioral training) or invasive electrophysiological recording (e.g., microphonics, single unit recording). A non-invasive, the auditory brainstem response (ABR) recording method is developed to study fish hearing. With the use of the ABR method and the removal of gas from various gas holding structures,...
