Fig. 4. Transport currents elicited by different Lysine containing substrates. A, representative currents recorded in the presence of the indicatedsubstrates (1 mM) at pH 7.6 in ssPepT1b (upper traces) and PepT1a, the oocytes were clamped at -60 mV. B, Mean of transport associated current at -60 mV in the presence of indicated substrates and normalized to the current in Gly-Gln. C, current-voltage relationship of transport-associated currentin ssPepT1b (top) and in ssPepT1a (bottom) recorded from -140 to +20 mV at two pH conditions: 6.5 (gray symbols) and 7.6 (empty symbols). Thecurrent value reported in I/V relationship and in bar histograms are obtained by subtracting from the current in the presence of indicated substrate, thecurrent in its absence.

4. Automatic feeding 4. Automatic feeding systems
TRITONE: TRITONE: AutomaticAutomatic feedingfeeding system
Automated diet delivery system for zebrafish labsIt reduces:
• Fish feeding costs• High variability associated to ‘more than one person’ feeding
It improves:• Hygiene at tank level
• Ergonomics during diet distribution• System water quality
DottoratoDottorato di di ricercaricerca industrialeindustriale (2017)Distribuzione automatizzata di cibo funzionale per zebrafish: verso una migliore alimentazione dei modelli animali acquatici in laboratorio (ZFeedPlus)
• Sviluppo di un sistema per la distribuzione automatizzata di cibi funzionali, compatibile con un sistema di allevamento a ricircolo usato per mantenere zebrafish in condizioni di stabulazione.
• Per standardizzare le condizioni di mantenimento di zebrafish in laboratorio migliorando il benessere degli animali, nella prospettiva di rendere più ‘certificabile’ il dato sperimentale, il progetto coniuga la necessità di sviluppare nuovi cibi nel rispetto delle esigenze alimentari di zebrafish e di rendere la somministrazione dell’alimento un fatto sempre più controllabile, riproducibile e indipendente dal fattore umano.
• Collaborazione tra un centro universitario del Sud Italia, che si occupa di fisiologia dei pesci, un’azienda del Nord Italia, leader indiscusso a livello mondiale nel settore della stabulazione, e un centro universitario in Norvegia, dove produrre pesce di interesse commerciale è settore industriale strategico nazionale, che è oggi uno dei più importanti centri mondiali di biologia e biotecnologie marine.
DottoratoDottorato di di ricercaricerca industrialeindustriale (2018)Distribuzione automatizzata di cibo funzionale per zebrafish: verso una migliore alimentazione dei modelli animali acquatici in laboratorio (ZFeedPlus)
• In 3 pacchetti di lavoro (WP), il progetto vuole:
• 1. Approfondire l’analisi molecolare e morfo-funzionale del sistema digerente di zebrafish
(WP1)
• 2. Mettere a punto diete speciali (WP2)
• 3. Analizzare gli effetti delle diete su crescita e, in generale, benessere dei pesci allevati
