## Abstract Ammonia enters the brain by diffusion from the blood or cerebrospinal fluid, or is formed __in situ__ from the metabolism of endogenous nitrogenโcontaining substances. Despite its central importance in nitrogen homeostasis, excess ammonia is toxic to the central nervous system and its c
## Abstract Acidโbase responses to change in body temperature have been described for terrestrial ectothermic vertebrates, but not for terrestrial invertebrates. The present study described changes in pH, carbon dioxide contents (C), and partial pressures (P) in prebranchial hemolymph of three supr
Gill ventilation, blood gas and acid-base values, Mo,, Mc.02 and the gas exchange ratio have been measured before, during, and after exposure to hypoxia in the channel catfish, Zctalurus punctatus. Z.punctatus maintains M,,, at control levels to a PI,, as low as 60 mm Hg, through a profound branchi
## Abstract Intraโarterial injection of a fixed acid load caused only a shortโlived (< 2h) disturbance of blood pH but a long lived (2โ3 days) elevation of urinary acid excretion in freshwater trout (Salmo gairdneri). The renal response comprised an immediate increase in acid output in the form of
