PAINLESSFISH - Melhorando o bem-estar dos peixes na aquacultura com analgésicos naturais

The PAINLESSFISH project aims to investigate the potential analgesic effects of natural compounds, using zebrafish subjected to painful stimuli as a model. Verifying the analgesic efficacy of natural compounds will allow their application in aquaculture during potentially painful procedures, thus promoting fish welfare and simultaneously improving the profitability and sustainability of this activity.
