Transmissible disease Host–pathogen interactions Fish welfare Respirometer Lack of environmental enrichment for captive terrestrial species is an established global welfare concern ( Erwin et al., 1976 ; Appleby and Wood-Gush, 1988 ; Carughi et al., 1989 ). Even for humans, environments lacking...

... calculations and assumptions to align repeated measures fluorescence closed-system respirometry with the broader respirometry literature. The resulting technology allows the calculation of metabolic rates from very small organisms, including our model system, plant seeds. Respirometer Constant volume Q...

... of oxygen consumption and carbon dioxide production rate, in small aquatic organisms (2 mg wet mass). Stop-flow Hypoxia Respirometer Validation Fish Insect Respiratory quotient The development of high-precision non-dispersive infrared CO 2 analysers has made available a powerful tool...

... (15.6-26.3 cm fork length, FL , and 34-179g at 18°C; 14.0-24.7 cm FL and 26-156g at 24°C) swam at a range of speeds in a temperature-controlled Brett-type respirometer, at the respective acclimation temperature. At a given fish size, the maximum speed that S. japonicus was able to maintain for a 30-min...

... net were measured by forcing individual fish to swim in a temperature-controlled, variable-speed swimming tunnel respirometer. There were no significant interspecific differences in the relationship between U max and body mass or fork length or in the relationship between COT net and body mass or fork...
