✦ Synopsis


Thermotolerance was studied in the rainbow trout fibroblast cell line RTG-2. RTG-2 cultures that had been incubated at 28OC for 24 h were better able to withstand ultimately lethal temperatures above 28OC than RTG-2 cultures that had been maintained at the routine growth temperature of 22OC. This thermotolerance developed rapidly between 3 and 6 h and was fully developed by 24 h at 28OC. After development for 24 h r at 28OC, thermotolerance showed little change over 72 h at 0 and 5OC but approximately a 40 and 60% reduction at 10 and 22OC, respectively. This is the first demonstration of heat-induced thermal resistance in the cells of a poikilothermic vertebrate.

Static-renewal 168-h toxicity tests of silver nitrate (AgNO 3 ), silver chloride (AgCl n ), and silver thiosulfate (Ag(S 2 O 3 ) n ) with juvenile rainbow trout (Oncorhyncus mykiss) were performed by standard methods. Because of low solubility of AgCl(s), bioassays for AgCl n were performed in two s
