Zebrafish (Danio rerio) - UMKC Research Groups Resources

(ZFIN) is the database of genetic and genomic data for the zebrafish (Danio rerio) as a model organism. ZFIN provides a wide array of expertly curated, organized and cross-referenced zebrafish research data.

A guide for the laboratory use of zebrafish. The 4th edition is made freely available online. The ZFIN Protocol Wiki is organized according to the structure of the 5th edition of this work.

This wiki is where zebrafish researchers can share experimental protocols and tips with the rest of the research community.

A collection of tips on how-to topics with ZFIN.

A sister organization of ZFIN, ZIRC's mission is to provide a central repository for wild-type and mutant strains of zebrafish (Danio rerio) and for materials and information about zebrafish research. Materials and zebrafish strains are distributed to the research community. Pathology services are provided for diseased fish. Standards and procedures for maintaining healthy strains of zebrafish are being developed and a manual, Diseases of Zebrafish in Research Facilities, for prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of diseases affecting zebrafish, is available.
