In vivo uptake of radiothyroxine by the tissues of Atlantic salmon ( Salmo salar L.) parr, presmolt, and smolt
Tissue uptake of radiothyroxine in Atlantic salmon parr, presmolts, and smolts held at 10.5 to 13.5 °C was assessed by measuring T/S ratios (tissue radioactivity/serum radioactivity) from 1 hour to 10 days after intraperitoneal injection of L-thyroxine– 125 I.T/S ratios were highest for gall bladder...
