A PERFUSION STUDY OF THE MOVEMENT OF STRONTIUM ACROSS THE GILLS OF RAINBOW TROUT (SALMO GAIRDNERII)

A perfusion technique for the study of transport across the intact gill of rainbow trout is described. It was found that the outflux rate of 1.6 x 10/ sup -6/ cm/sec was greater than the influx rate of 5 x 10/sup -8/ cm/sec for strontium, and that strontium would go out of a fish gill against a concentration gradient under these experimental conditions.
