Abstract
Abstract 1. Evidence is presented that cysts of the brine shrimp, Artemia salina, initiate the utilization of trehalose and the synthesis of glycerol and glycogen only after hydration levels of 0.65 g H2O/g CaSO4-dried cysts have been achieved. 2. The ability of embryos to emerge from their shells was also correlated with this level of hydration. 3. The viability of embryos emerging in the vapor phase of NaCl solutions was examined.
