The discrepancy in the carbonate found in fish bone and blood

Abstract: It has been reported in the literature that fish, to get sufficient oxygen, must overventilate with respect to CO s and therefore exhibit a low circulating level of bicarbonate.Accordingly, the bones of trout and carp were analyzed to learn if the composition of their bone mineral reflects the low serum level of bicarbonate. It was found that the CO 2 content of fish bone is not significantly different from that of normal mammalian bone.Synthetic apatite crystals, made under comparable conditions of T, ~z, and… Show more

“…Fish are, however, characterized by a larger proportion of uncalcified collagen bundles in their skeletons (Moss, 1961;Moss, 1963;Neuman and Mulryan, 1968). The lack of mineralization in fish bone may be an adaptation related to buoyancy, or it may facilitate easy metabolism of stored lipids within the bones (Mendez et al, 1993).…”

“…Fish, however, are characterized by a higher proportion of non-calcified collagen in the skeleton (Neuman and Mulryan, 1968). On the other hand, collagen fibrils in fish pin bones have lower density compared to mammals (Lee and Glimcher, 1991).…”
