Experiments were conducted to determine the effects of feeding
sulfamethazine to chinook salmon (Oncorhyncus tshawytscha, Walbaum)
as it is used in the Oregon Moist Pellet diet (OMP) for control of
bacterial infections and to compare this drug with sulfisoxazole and
sulfadimethoxine. These drugs were compared in the following manner:
toxicity,...
A study on the cellular differentiation of the gill structure in
juvenile coho salmon (O. kisutch) with emphasis on the excretion of
monovalent ions was performed upon animals maintained under both
seawater and freshwater environments.
1. The excretion rate of sodium-24 was observed to be higher
for animals adapted to...
The fatty acids of coho salmon were identified and then a study
was conducted to determine the effects of exercise on the fatty acids
of salmon forced to swim against water velocities of 52, 54, 56, and
59 cm/sec, The shorter and lighter salmon were less competent at
a given...
The subject of this thesis is an evaluation of a louver facility
in the Lemhi River, Idaho. The louver facility was designed to guide
juvenile chinook salmon and steelhead trout into a trap in order to
sample downstream migrant populations. The study was designed to
determine: (1) if the catch...
