Absorption of glucose dissolved in sea water by the postlarvae of the oyster, Crassostrea gigas
A tissue accumulation technique was used to study the absorption of a dissolved representative monosaccharide (D-glucose) in sea water by the postlarvae of the oyster, Crassostrea gigas. Evidence was obtained for absorption by an active transport mechanism of dissolved D-glucose from sea water by th...

| Summary: | A tissue accumulation technique was used to study the absorption of a dissolved representative monosaccharide (D-glucose) in sea water by the postlarvae of the oyster, Crassostrea gigas. Evidence was obtained for absorption by an active transport mechanism of dissolved D-glucose from sea water by the oyster postlarvae into the free carbohydrate tissue pool.
