Aquatic Living Resources Anesthesia in Pacific oyster, Crassostrea gigas
Abstract – A reliable anaesthesia and sampling protocol for Pacific oysters will enable experiments to be conducted without sacrificing animals and will facilitate successive sampling of individuals for gametogenesis studies. As no such techniques were available for Crassostrea gigas, the present st...
