Acute exposure of Siberian sturgeon (Acipenser baeri, Brandt) yearlings to nitrite: median-lethal concentration (LC50) determination, haematological changes and nitrite accumulation in selected tissues
International audience Exposure of Siberian sturgeon (Acipenser baeri) yearlings (172.0±18 g; mean±S.D.) to several NO2-¯N concentrations (0, 25, 130, 180 and 275 mg/l) was studied for 72 h in static tests. At 72 h, the median-lethal concentration of NO2-¯N was 130 mg/l in water with high chloride c...
