Experimental rearing of rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri Rich.) in cooling waters of “Dolna Odra” power station

Toxicokinetics of Fenvalerate in Rainbow Trout (Salmo Gairdneri)

An in vivo rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri) preparation was used to evaluate the gill uptake and toxicokinetics of [3H]fenvalerate ([R,S]-α-cyano-3-phenoxybenzyl [R,S]-2-[4-chloro-phenyl]-3-methylbutyrate), a synthetic pyrethroid insecticide. Fish were exposed to technical-grade fenvalerate (0.28 or 23 ng/L) or an emulsifiable-concentrate formulation (16 ng/L) for 36 to 48 h. No significant effe...

Nocardial Infection in Hatchery-reared Fingerling Rainbow Trout (salmo Gairdneri).

Lactate and Proton Dynamics in the Rainbow Trout (salmo Gairdneri)

Chronically cannulated rainbow trout were subjected to 6 min of severe burst exercise and monitored over a 12 h recovery period. There were shortlived increases in haematocrit, haemoglobin, plasma protein, Na and Cl~ levels. Plasma [Cl~] later declined below normal as organic anions accumulated. A much larger and more prolonged elevation in plasma [K] probably resulted from intracellular acidos...

Pituitary activation by bacterial endotoxins in rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri).

Endotoxins from Escherichia coli and Aeromonas salmonicida caused marked cortisol production in the rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri).

The Scaling of Aerobic and Anaerobic Muscle Power in Rainbow Trout (salmo Gairdneri)

The scaling of anaerobic metabolism and red muscle mass was examined in rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri) ranging in size from 2 to 1200 g. The initial rate of white muscle lactate production during maximal burst activity was significantly higher in large (28-1 cm) than in small (8-0 cm) fish. 'Resting' lactate concentrations in anesthetized trout (approximately 30 s of stress) increased with fis...
