Abstract
AbstractInjections of physiological (2 μg/kg) and supraphysiological (8 μg/kg) doses of dopamine, norepinephrine, and epinephrine via a cardiac cannula into freshwater‐adapted eels were not followed by changes in serum osmolality, sodium, and chloride. Likewise, injections of 8 μg/kg of epinephrine had no impact on these parameters in seawater‐adapted eels. These results suggest that circulating catecholamines do not have a major effect on the overall balance of osmoregulatory serum components in the intact eel.
