The Responses of Germ-Free Zebrafish (Danio rerio) to Varying Bacterial Concentrations, Colonization Time Points, and Exposure Duration

The Responses of Germ-Free Zebrafish (Danio rerio) to Varying Bacterial Concentrations, Colonization Time Points, and Exposure Duration

Colonizing germ-free (GF) zebrafish with specific bacterial species provides the possibility of understanding the influence on host biological processes including gene expression, development, immunity, and behavioral responses. It also enlightens our understanding on the host-microbe interactions w...
