Branched-chain amino acid aminotransferase activity in the tissues of lake trout

1. The enzyme branched-chain amino acid aminotransferase (BCAT) was found in five tissues of fingerling lake trout, Salvelinus namaycush, (listed in order of decreasing tissue specific activity): posterior kidney, skeletal muscle, gill, liver, and anterior kidney.2. This pattern is consistent with that found in other animals.3. The results of this study seem to indicate that BCAT in the liver of l

Effect of temperature on production of tiger muskellunge in intensive culture

Tiger muskellunge (Esox masquinony × E. lucius) juveniles were reared at constant temperatures in the temperature range 14–28°C. For fish 3–4 cm long, growth, production and feed conversion efficiency were greatest at 20–22°C. Survival was reduced and unaccountable mortality (cannibalism index) was greatest at 24°C. Growth per unit of temperature was about equal over the range 16–22°C. For fish 12
