blood viscosity and hematological changes during prolonged submergence in normoxic water of northern and southern musk turtles (sternotherus odoratus). | musk turtles (sternotherus odoratus) can survive at least 150 days of submergence in normoxic water at 3 degreesc, during which time there are large increases in packed cell volume (pcv). we investigated the effects of submergence in normoxic water at 3 degreesc on the blood viscosity of musk turtles from northern (massachusetts) and southern (alabama) locales. blood was collected from air-breathing turtles and after 20, 50, 100, and 150 days of submergence in normoxic water at 3 degreesc. hemat ... | 2000 | 11110159 |
