An investigation of gill and blood carbonic anhydrase characteristics in three basal actinopterygian species: alligator gar (Atractosteus spatula), white sturgeon (Acipenser transmontanus) and Senegal bichir (Polypterus senegalus)
Many teleosts possess a unique set of respiratory characteristics allowing enhanced oxygen unloading to the tissues during stress. This system...

Quantal Properties of Voltage-Dependent Ca2+ Release in Frog Skeletal Muscle Persist After Reduction of [Ca2+] in the Sarcoplasmic Reticulum
In skeletal muscle, the Ca 2+ release flux elicited by a voltage clamp pulse rises to an early peak that inactivates rapidly to a much lower steady...

Causes and consequences of gas bubble trauma on fish gill function
Total dissolved gas supersaturation (TDGS) occurs when air mixes with water under pressure, which can be caused by features such as hydroelectric...
