The Effects Of Salinity On Cadmium Toxicity To The Bay Mysid, Mysidopsis Bahia Molenock, Peter F. De Lisle Jan 1988

The Effects Of Salinity On Cadmium Toxicity To The Bay Mysid, Mysidopsis Bahia Molenock, Peter F. De Lisle

Dissertations, Theses, and Masters Projects

The effects of salinity on cadmium toxicity to the bay mysid, Mysidopsis bahia Molenock were studied in a series of experiments examining salinity tolerance, effect of salinity on intermolt period, osmoregulatory capacity, interaction of salinity with acute cadmium toxicity, role of changes in cadmium speciation, modification due to calcium antagonism and effects of cadmium on osmoregulatory ability. Upper and lower tolerance limits increased with increasing acclimation salinity. Intermolt duration decreased slightly with increasing salinity. Mysidopsis bahia osmoregulates at salinities from 5 to 37&\perthous& and exhibits an isosmotic point of 24&\perthous&. Hemolymph osmolality attained steady-state condition by 95 min post-transfer to …
