this paper investigates host condition factor, parasite interaction and metal accumulation in tilapia guineesis and host-parasite system in iddo area of lagos lagoon, nigeria. eighty specimens of t. guineensis from the lagoon were caught and dissected for intestinal helminth parasites. condition factors of all individuals were determined. median condition (k<2.62 and k>2.62) were used in groupi...

A procedure is described for the simultaneous, automatic determination of serum calcium and magnesium with the AutoAnalyzer, and a dualchannel, double-beam atomic absorption spectrophotometer, the IL Model 153. Advantages over existing procedures include a high rate of analysis (90 samples or 180tests per hour) and low sample consumption (a total of 30 l for both determinations). We have compar...
