“…This author also reported swelling of cells, which would be consistent with the observations on blood from experimental fish from the second test. However, unlike the results from the present study, Buckley et al [32] reported slightly, but significantly, reduced hemoglobin concentrations and hematocrit in coho salmon exposed for 91 d at 0.33 mg NH 3 ‐N/L.…”

“…Respiratory impairment in fish resulting from exposure to ammonia-N was also studied (Smart 1978; Buckley et al 1979), and it was concluded that oxygen consumption generally increases when fish are acutely exposed to ammonia-N. Both oxygen uptake and ammonia-N excretion of P. juponicus increased with decreasing salinity and increased directly with previous ammonia-N concentration (Chen and Chen 1997).…”

“…The gradual disappearance of obvious clinical signs in our fish, starting at about 3 weeks, suggested re-establishment of normal blood ammonia levels through homeostatic control mechanisms such as increased excretion or detoxifying reactions. Buckley, Whitmore & Liming (1979) found no change in blood level of total ammonia in freshwater coho salmon, O. kisutch (Walbaum), after 91 days of exposure to un-ionized ammonia levels of up to 0-27 mg/1, but they observed increased plasma sodium levels and suggested that this was the result of an exchange of NH4+ for external Na+ across the branchial epithelium.…”
