Physiological parameters measured in zebrafish at various stages during the transport process and prior to transport.

Abstract

<p>Whole body cortisol (n = 15), blood glucose (n = 15), whole body ammonia (n = 7) and liver ammonia (n = 7) were analyzed prior to transport (basal), immediately after packing (0 h), and at 48 and 72 h of transport.</p><p>Different letters indicate statistically significant differences among the different time points (P<0.05).</p><p>Values are given as means ± s.e.m.</p
