The location (gills, oro-branchial cavity or elsewhere) and orientation (external (water) or
internal (blood) sensing) of the receptors involved in reflex changes in each of the different …

The hypoxic ventilatory response is arguably the single most important physiological
response accompanying the exposure of fish to lowered ambient P o 2. Increases in …

Fish and amphibians utilise a suction/force pump to ventilate gills or lungs, with the
respiratory muscles innervated by cranial nerves, while reptiles have a thoracic, aspiratory …

The cardio-respiratory function, oxidative stress and fish antioxidants were analyzed in
juvenile Nile tilapia exposed for 96h to a sublethal trichlorfon (TRC-Neguvon®, Bayer) …

Teleost fish have oxygen-sensitive neuroepithelial cells (NECs) in the gills that appear to
mediate physiological responses to hypoxia, but little is known about oxygen sensing in …

Glyphosate-based herbicides are widely used in agriculture and are commonly found in
water bodies. Roundup Original®(RO) contains an isopropylamine glyphosate (GLY) salt …

The aquatic habitats of the Amazon basin present dramatic variation of oxygen level, and, to
survive such changes, many aquatic animals developed biochemical and physiological …

This study determined the respiratory responses to progressive hypoxia in oscar, an
extremely hypoxia-tolerant Amazonian cichlid. Oscar depressed oxygen consumption rates …

Atmospheric particulate matter (APM) emitted by iron ore processing industries has a
complex composition, including diverse metallic particles and nanoparticles. Settleable APM …

To explore whether temperature-dependent increases in cardiac output (Q) are mediated
solely through heart rate (fH) in fish to ensure adequate/efficient blood oxygenation, we …
