Bioenergetics of critical swimming speed tests in Atlantic cod as monitored by 31P-NMR spectroscopy.
In an effort to better define the timing of metabolic processes that underpin the critical swimming speed in fish, we developed a method for monitoring high-energy phosphates using 31P-NMR spectroscopy in Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) during a Brett-style critical swimming speed (Ucrit) test. We were...
