Total Ammonia Concentration and P H of Haemolymph, Pleon Fluid and Maxillary Urine in Porcellio Scaber Lattreille (Isopoda, Oniscidea): Relationships to Ambient Humidity and Water Vapour Uptake

Jonathan C. Wright, Michael J. O’Donnell
Journal: Journal of Experimental Biology
J Exp Biol (1993) 176 (1): 233–246.
DOI: https://doi.org/10.1242/jeb.176.1.233
Published: 1 March 1993
...Jonathan C. Wright; Michael J. O’Donnell ABSTRACT Ammonia levels and pH were studied in body fluids of Porcellio scaber with special reference to ambient humidity and the timing of pleon fluid secretion and pleopodal ventilation. In high humidity (approximately 96.7%), concentrations of total...

Osmolality and Electrolyte Composition of Pleon Fluid in Porcellio Scaber (Crustacea, Isopqda, Oniscidea): Implications for Water Vapour Absorption

Jonathan C. Wright, Michael J. O’Donnell
Journal: Journal of Experimental Biology
J Exp Biol (1992) 164 (1): 189–203.
DOI: https://doi.org/10.1242/jeb.164.1.189
Published: 1 March 1992
...Jonathan C. Wright; Michael J. O’Donnell ABSTRACT Active water vapour absorption in Porcellio scaber is associated with the endogenous production of strongly hyperosmotic fluid in the pleoventral chamber (pleoventralraum; PV). Pre-desiccated animals show increased pleon fluid secretion within 1–2...
