... for vertebrates( Lutz et al., 1996 ). The physiology of anoxia tolerance has been examined in relatively few species of vertebrates, notably the painted turtle Chrysemys picta and the crucian carp Carassius carassius . Anaerobiosis in these organisms is supported by a complex suite of traits that includes...

... of valuable substrates during anaerobiosis. Propionate was also produced, but only during experimental N 2 -incubation, under near-anoxic conditions. The intermittent metabolism of C. fluminea is discussed as an adaption to efficiently exploit the rare food supply, saving substrates by the pronounced...

... metallothionein invertebrate anaerobiosis freeze tolerance periwinkle Littorina littorea Species that inhabit the intertidal zone possess a high degree of metabolic plasticity that enables them to tolerate the constantly changing environmental conditions imposed by the tidal cycle. One such species...

...H. O. PÖRTNER; N. A. ANDERSEN; N. HEISLER Proton-equivalent ion transfer processes between animals and ambient water were determined under normoxic control conditions during anaerobiosis and the subsequent recovery period in the marine worm Sipunculus nudus L. During anaerobiosis and recovery...

...STEPHEN P. J. BROOKS; KENNETH B. STOREY The roles of hormones, second messengers and pH in triggering or potentiating biochemical responses to anaerobiosis were evaluated using in vitro incubations of isolated muscle tissues (foot, radular retractor, ventricle) from the marine whelk Busycon...
