Long‐term tagging of elvers, Anguilla anguilla, with radioactive europium
Elvers were labelled with 152 Eu and 155 Eu. Optimum conditions turned out to be incubation for 3 h at 15°C in artificial sea water containing 2% NaCl and 0.1% KCl, EuCl 3 at 1 mCi (37 MBq) 1 −1 and an eel concentration of about 15%. Laboratory experiments pointed to a biological half‐life of added...
