Abstract
Relationship between hematocrit value and arterial blood gases were examined on the carp which had various levels of hematocrit value (4.8-25.9%) and hemoglobin concentration (1.30-8.60g/dl) by taking out various amount of arterial blood. With decrease of hematocrit value, oxygen content of the blood and protein concentration of the plasma decreased straightly, and total carbon dioxide content of the blood increased. Although hematocrit value decreased, oxygen consumption, pH and oxygen pressure of the blood were not affected by the decrease and showed the constant levels.
