As a service to the community and EHS members, we offer the ability to order specific pathogen free fish (SPF) for two wildtype line and toxicity testing in embryonic and adult zebrafish. There are discounts available to those depending on their affiliation to the ZBR. The order form applies to both OSU and external members. An order form is required to receive our services.
The SPF monitored AB and 5D Tropical lines were originally screened for Pseudoloma neurophilia using qRTPCR (Sanders, 2011). After entering the SPF facility all lines are routinely screened for Pseudoloma neurophilia and other pathogens of concern (Kent, 2011).Since their introduction into the SARL facility, the lines have been maintained using a method that is in accordance with the ZIRC's protocol for AB and wild type next generation propagation. Each new generation is derived from the offspring of no less than 25 small group crosses, containing 3 males and up to 3 females each. Equal numbers of contributors are pulled from each cross to create the next generation. Embryos are screened daily until 5 dpf for the morphological defect.
There are two types of fish order – self collection (ie: local pick up) or delivery (only within the United States). All delivery orders include the cost of shipping, supplies and handling.
Embryos are bleached at 8 hours post fertilization (hpf) and will be approximately 48 hours upon arrival. Delivery orders must be received with at least 2 weeks lead time before desired receipt date. Shipments are sent only on Tuesday and Wednesday. Self collection orders must be placed 72 hours before needed.
Zebrafish developmental toxicity testing is available to all those who wish to assess their samples. Additionally, we offer adult and larval behavior assays.
After placing an order, it will take 24-48 business hours to be approved. If you do not receive an order approval within this time frame, contact [email protected]. We will communicate if anything about the order needs to be adjusted.
Shipments are sent only on Tuesday and Wednesday. A Fedex notification will be sent when shipped. Self collection orders must be For services, a report will be provided.
Once shipment and/or services are rendered, an invoice will be sent. OSU only accepts checks. Payments are NET30.
