Ammonia Excretion in Corophium volutator: Using an Automated Method

Abstract
Rates of ammonia excretion for Corophium volutator were determined for 99 individuals using an automated method. The method allowed rapid and precise determination of excretion rates for single animals as a function of time. Excretion rates for Corophium ranged from 0.66 to 24.4 ng-atm∙mg−1∙h−1 for animals weighing 0.10–1.87 mg dry weight.Key words: ammonia, excretion rate, Corophium volutator
