Ammonia is produced in the liver and excreted as NH(3) by diffusion across the gills. Elevated ammonia results in an increase in gill ventilation, perhaps via stimulation of gill oxygen chemo-receptors. Acidification of the water around the fish by c

SUMMARY Erythropoietin (EPO) is a glycoprotein hormone that regulates the proliferation and differentiation of erythroid progenitor cells in mammals. Although EPO has been identified in fish, the specific function and effects of hypoxia have not been

Ammonia criteria are established using data from standardized toxicity tests involving healthy animals. Both intrinsic and extrinsic environmental changes affect the immune system, but few toxicity studies consider the overall impact on this system a

This study evaluated the use of video transects obtained from SCUBA divers or remote operated vehicle (ROV) and point intercept transect (PIT) method from divers for monitoring subtropical coral communities. Comparisons were made between the datasets

SUMMARYThe gills are the major site of acid–base regulation in most fish. Acid–base transfer across fish gills is dominated by carbon dioxide and ammonia excretion, especially the former. Bicarbonate buffering in the blood is less than that found

Hypoxia is a frequent challenge to aquatic vertebrates as compared with that for their terrestrial counterparts. All vertebrates respond to hypoxia in a similar, but not identical manner, indicating that these responses appeared early in the evolutio

SUMMARYTeleost fish possess discrete blocks of oxidative red muscle (RM) and glycolytic white muscle, whereas tetrapod skeletal muscles are mixed oxidative/glycolytic. It has been suggested that the anatomy of RM in teleost fish could lead to higher

Most tropical fishes are ammonotelic, producing ammonia and excreting it as NH3 by diffusion across the branchial epithelia. Hence, those air-breathing tropical fishes that survive on land briefly or for an extended period would have difficulties in

The giant mudskipper, Periophthalmodon schlosseri, is an amphibious, obligate, air-breathing teleost fish. It uses its buccal cavity for air breathing and for taking and holding large gulps of air. These fish live in mud burrows at the top of the int

Experiments were performed to evaluate the effects of alkaline environmental pH on urea and ammonia excretion rates and on tissue urea, ammonia, and free amino acid concentrations in two mudskippers, Periophthalmodon schlosseri and Boleophthalmus bod
