Acute nitrite toxicity and methemoglobinemia in juvenile milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal)
(Elsevier, 1987)
Nitrite was about 55 times more toxic to milkfish juveniles in fresh water than in 16% brackish water: the 48-h median lethal concentrations were 12 mg NO<sub>2-</sub>N/l (95% confidence limit=7.4–19.6) and 675 mg ...
Plasma osmolality and chloride regulation in the sea bass Lates calcarifer
(Society of Israeli Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology, 1996)
Seawater-adapted sea bass (Lates calcarifer) subadults and fingerlings were abruptly transferred to fresh water and freshwater-adapted subadults and fingerlings to sea water. To follow the responses of plasma osmolality ...
Induced breeding and larval rearing experiments with milkfish Chanos chanos (Forskal) in the Philippines
(Elsevier, 1984)
Salmon pituitary homogenate was used alone or in combination with human chorionic gonadotropin, to induce spawing in captive and wild adult milkfish at ambient temperature (26–30°C) and salinity of 34%.. Healthy or slightly ...
Changes in plasma osmolality and chloride concentration during abrupt transfer of milkfish (Chanos chanos) from seawater to different test salinities
(Elsevier, 1988)
Milkfish juveniles (40, 120 or 260 g) were acclimated to 32 ppt seawater, then abruptly transferred to water with salinities of 0, 16, 32 (control) or 48 ppt. Blood samples were taken 0, 1, 2, 3, 5, 7 or 14 days after ...
Sustained hormone release. III. Use of gonadotropin releasing hormone analogues to induce multiple spawnings in sea bass, Lates calcarifer
(Elsevier, 1988)
Two gonadotropin releasing hormone analogues (GnRHa), [D-Ala<sup>6</sup>, Pro<sup>9</sup>-ethylamide] mammalian GnRH and [D-Arg<sup>6</sup>, Pro<sup>9</sup>-ethylamide] salmon GnRH, were shown to induce spawning in see ...
Ammonia excretion in Penaeus monodon postlarvae during handling and transfer
(Society of Israeli Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology, 1994)
The ammonia excretion rate was used as an index of the physiological state of Penaeus monodon poltlarvae (PL) by monitoring excretion rates after handling and transfer to physiologically different media. The ammonia excretion ...
Responses of a non-migratory stock of brown trout, Salmo trutta, to ovine growth hormone treatment and seawater exposure
(Elsevier, 1993)
The ability of ovine growth hormone (oGH) to enhance the hypo-osmoregulatory performance of a non-migratory stock of the brown trout (Salmo trutta) was investigated. Three groups of juvenile fish were intraperitoneally ...
Ammonia excretion rates of the sea bass, Lates calcarifer, in fresh and sea water
(Society of Israeli Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology, 1994)
The weight-specific ammonia excretion rate of sea bass (Lates calcarifer) fry in fresh water is higher than that of those in sea water. The allometric equation \(y = 24.426 \times ^{-0.4714}\) best describes the relationship ...
Breeding and larval rearing of the rabbitfish, Siganus guttatus (Bloch)
(Elsevier, 1985)
Females of Siganus guttatus reared to sexual maturity in canvas tanks were induced to spawn by using human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG, Ayerst) at 500 IU/fish or about 2 IU/g body weight. The amount of HCG used depended ...
