Na + /H + and Cl -/HCO 3 -exchanges in the branchial epithelium are thought to be primarily responsible for acid-base transfers in fish. Several different cellular mechanisms have been proposed to drive these exchanges in fresh water and marine species. We measured the acidbase balance and net H + t

## Abstract The results show that rainbow trout __(Salmo gairdneri)__ are able to concentrate NO ions in the blood plasma. After 24 hr in water containing 0.7 mM/l NO, the blood plasma contained about 5mM/l NO suggesting that the gills have the ability to transport NO~2~ against a concentration gra

## Abstract In fresh water fishes, ammonia is excreted across the branchial epithelium via passive NH~3~ diffusion. This NH~3~ is subsequently trapped as NH in an acidic unstirred boundary layer lying next to the gill, which maintains the blood‐to‐gill water NH~3~ partial pressure gradient. Whole a

Varying the concentration of un-ionized ammonia (NH,) in the medium perfusing the gills of the isolated fish head while holding the total ammonia (NH,' + NH,) concentration constant had no significant effect on gill ammonia excretion. In contrast, alteration in the medium NH,+ concentration at a fix
