Effects of long-term exposure to hydrostatic pressure per se (101 ATA) on eel metabolism
Oxygen consumption, [Formula: see text], has been measured in yellow freshwater eels (Anguilla anguilla L.) exposed in normoxic conditions for 31 days at a hydrostatic pressure of 101 ATA (atmosphere absolute; 1 ATA = 0.1 MPa) using a high pressure water circulation system. The results (series I) sh...
