Zebrafish are an excellent model for studying the mechanisms of the innate immune defense against pathogens. A high throughput approach is described for a study of the innate immunity in response to bacterial pathogens. The COPAS flow cytometer provided the data analysis in a quick, unbiased and high throughput manner.

Whole animal acid secretion can be used as readout for energy metabolism, thus enabling high-throughput chemical and genetic screens for regulators of metabolic rate in a vertebrate. The COPAS sorter was critical for automation.
