The quantitative measurement of water flow-induced swimming of fish species using a swimmill is a powerful method to evaluate motor ability of individual fish. Zebrafish is a commonly used vertebrate that enables the study of morphological, physiological and behavioral characteristics associated with genes. We here established a reproducible method that allows to measure the body length and the critical swimming speed of adult zebrafish using a swimmill.
使用游泳水槽对鱼类水流诱导游泳进行定量测量是评估单个鱼类运动能力的有效方法。斑马鱼是一种常用的脊椎动物，可用于研究与基因相关的形态、生理和行为特征。我们在此建立了一种可重复的方法，能够使用游泳水槽测量成年斑马鱼的体长和临界游泳速度。
