Zebrafish Y Maze

Enables Y Maze experiments to assess anxiety and exploration.

The Zebrafish Y Maze is a key tool for studying anxiety and exploratory behavior. During trials, the maze has distinct arms, and the fish are allowed to choose their path freely.

Unveiling Spatial Learning

Insights from the Zebrafish Y Maze Test

The Zebrafish Y Maze is a useful tool for assessing anxiety and exploratory behavior. During the trial, zebrafish are placed in a Y-shaped maze, and their choices of which arm to explore are recorded. A preference for certain arms can indicate anxiety, while more exploration suggests lower anxiety. The test capitalizes on the zebrafish’s natural curiosity, offering insights into their emotional responses. ConductVision software tracks movements and provides detailed data on the time spent in each arm, helping to assess anxiety and exploration.

Investigating Social Stimuli on Behavior

ConductVision can collect live data during a Zebrafish Y Maze experiment by tracking the fish’s movements in real-time. As the zebrafish explores the maze, the software automatically detects its position and records the time spent in each arm of the maze. This data is continuously updated and displayed on the ConductVision interface, providing researchers with immediate feedback on the fish’s behavior. The software tracks key metrics such as the fish’s movement patterns, exploration choices, and latency to enter different arms. This live data allows for instant analysis of anxiety and exploratory behaviors, helping researchers make real-time decisions and adjustments during the experiment.

Chronic Stress Evaluation

  • Exploration behavior changes: As chronic stress increases (e.g., prolonged exposure to stressors), ConductVision may show a decrease in time spent in the light zone, indicating higher anxiety.
  • Recording immobility patterns: Stressed fish may spend more time in the dark zone and show behaviors of immobility. ConductVision can detect these patterns and allow for a detailed analysis of the long-term stress response.
