Folmar, L., T. Moody, S. Bonomelli, AND J. Gibson. ANNUAL CYCLE OF BLOOD CHEMISTRY MEASUREMENTS IN STRIPED MULLET (MUGIL CEPHALUS) AND PINFISH (LOGADON RHOMOBOIDES) FROM THE GULF OF MEXICO. U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Washington, D.C., EPA/600/J-93/061 (NTIS PB93168953), 1992.

Description:

Annual cycle measurements were made on serum sodium (Na), potassium (K), chloride (Cl), iron (Fe), magnesium (Mg), calcium (Ca), carbon dioxide (CO2), total protein (TP), albumin (Albg), cholesterol (Chol), triglycerides (Trig), inorganic phosphorous (Pi), uric acid (Uric), blood urea Nitrogen (BUN), creatinine (Crea), glucose (Glu), lactate dehydrogenase (LD-L), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and creatine kinase (CK) in the striped mullet (Mugil cephalus) and the pinfish (Lagodon rhomboides). or each parameter, mean, standard deviation and coefficient of variation (CV) are reported. he lowest CVs were associated with the electrolytes and the higher CVs with serum enzymes. he lowest variability for most parameters was observed in the vitellogenic and prespawning period.
