It is seen that environmental osmotic conditions (temperature and salinity) have a major influence on NH<sup>+</sup><sub>4</sub> formation and thus on protein (amino acid) catabolism. Blood ammonia concentrations appear to be strongly stabilized, independent of environmental osmotic conditions, ranging between 0,25 and 0,55 mmol.l<sup>-1</sup>. At normal, low environmental NH<sup>+</sup><sub>4</sub> concentrations blood NH<sup>+</sup><sub>4</sub> is strongly hyper-ionic compared to external concentrations; at high environmental NH<sup>+</sup><sub>4</sub> concentrations (even when artificially raised to 2,5 mmol.l<sup>-1</sup>) blood NH<sup>+</sup><sub>4</sub> is strongly hypo-ionic. Regulation of the blood NH<sup>+</sup><sub>4</sub> concentrations takes place by a variable efflux of NH<sup>+</sup><sub>4</sub>; at high environmental NH<sup>+</sup><sub>4</sub> concentrations (>0,28 mmol.l<sup>-1</sup>), in addition to a high NH<sup>+</sup><sub>4</sub>  efflux, stabilization of the blood NH<sup>+</sup><sub>4</sub>  concentrations is effectuated by the formation of urea. Ammonia efflux to the surrounding water is highly dependent to the osmotic conditions of the environment: <i>viz.</i> positively related to temperature and inversely related to external salinity, with variable stable values  near the osmotic salinity. Related to the strong variations in ammonia efflux, external NH<sup>+</sup><sub>4</sub>  concentrations in a closed volume of water are highly variable. In the course of time very high values develop in media of low salinity at high temperature. A close connection between NH<sup>+</sup><sub>4</sub>  excretion and extracellular ion regulation is indicated.","AbstractOtherLang":null,"BibLvlCode":"AS","StandardTitle":"The ammonium excretion of the shore crab, <i>Carcinus maenas</i>, in relation to environmental osmotic conditions","OrigTitleLangCode":"en","OrigTitleLangCodeExtended":"eng","OrigTitleLangID":15,"DateLastModified":{"date":"2024-12-10 01:33:17.368041","timezone_type":1,"timezone":"+01:00"},"UserAccessRight":null,"UserAccID":null,"AuthorKeywords":null,"OtherDescriptors":null,"Notes":null,"AnaPub":1982,"MonPub":null,"DateUpdate":"2019-07-04","DateCreate":"2001-07-30","SecASFANote":null,"ConfID":null,"PeerRev":1,"VlizCoreFlag":1,"WoScode":null,"VABBcode":null,"OpenAcc":0},"refs":null,"anarec":{"AnaID":14293,"PubliDate":1982,"Pagination":"273-283","XtraPublOfAnaID":null,"ISBN":null,"Volume":"15","Issue":"2","BRefMon":null,"BRefMonRR":null,"BRefXtra":null,"BRefXtraRR":null,"SerBRefID":44573,"SerRR":"Netherlands Journal of Sea Research.
