Abstract
This chapter introduces the model organism that was used in the presented work, i.e, the wild-type AB zebrafish Danio rerio. We will first present the main biological characteristics of the zebrafish and explain why it is widely used nowadays as a model animal in different scientific topics. Some descriptions of the zebrafish behavior observed during this study inside our experimental infrastructure and the facility created to house zebrafish in our laboratory will also be shown.
