摘要:
A technique has been developed for extracting small quantities of blood, up to 16 mu l, from fish of 20-30 mm total length, from the dorsal aorta of decapitated fish. This method can provide up to 4 mu l of blood from fish of total length 10 mm. This method compares favourably with the well established technique of caudal peduncle severance in larger fish; no significant difference was found between the two techniques for plasma osmolality, HGBC, WBCC and HCT.
