The British freshwater crayfish Austropotamobius pallipes
lives in streams or pools that are liable to dry up or become stagnant, and these animals are known to leave water voluntarily to forage or to invade neighbouring habitats (Huxley, 1896; Taylor and Wheatly, 1980). When placed in air, the gills collapse and the crayfish suffer continuously from systemic hypoxia and hypercapnia. Associated with an initial virtual anoxia and a switch to anaerobic ...
متن کاملAction potential and sodium current in the slowly and rapidly adapting stretch receptor neurons of the crayfish (Astacus astacus).
Action potentials (APs) and sodium current from the slowly and the rapidly adapting stretch receptor neurons in the crayfish (Astacus astacus) were recorded with a two microelectrode voltage- and current-clamp technique. In the rapidly adapting neuron the APs had a duration of 3.2 +/- 0.2 ms (means +/- SE) and an amplitude of 55.2 +/- 1.5 mV. In the slowly adapting receptor neuron APs had a dur...
متن کاملFreshwater crayfish Astacus leptodactylus (Eschscholtz, 1823) accumulates and depurates copper.
Cu accumulation and depuration in various tissues of the crayfish Astacus leptodactylus was investigated. Adult specimens were exposed to 0.5, 2.5 and 5.0 mg Cu/L under static conditions for three weeks. At the end of the 3rd week the specimens were divided into three groups and left in dechlorinated water for either 1, 2 or 3 weeks for depuration. After 7, 14 and 21 days, four crayfish from ea...
متن کاملOntogeny of osmoregulation in the crayfish Astacus leptodactylus.
Osmoregulation was studied during the postembryonic development of Astacus leptodactylus Eschscholtz 1823 in juvenile stages 1-8 and in adults. Juveniles hatch and later stages develop in freshwater or in moderately saline waters. The time of acclimation from freshwater to a saline medium increased from early juveniles to adults. At all stages, it was longer than in comparable stages of marine ...
متن کاملSimultaneous experimental study of direct and direct plus trophic contamination of the crayfish Astacus astacus by inorganic mercury and methylmercury.
An experimental study was carried out to investigate direct and direct plus trophic contamination routes of the crayfish Astacus astacus by inorganic mercury (Hg(II)) or methylmercury (MeHg). Direct exposure was based on low contamination conditions, 300 and 30 ng/L in the dissolved phase, respectively, during 30 d at 20 degrees C. Trophic exposure was based on daily consumption of the Asiatic ...
