title: A comparison of some methods for determining oxygen dissociation curves of fish blood.
abstract: A brief description is given of four different methods for determining the oxygen dissociation curve of trout blood at pH 7.8 and 15 degrees C. A comparison of the results obtained indicates that the methods give similar results, especially when used by experienced workers. The relative advantages and disadvantages of the methods for determination of some O2-carrying parameters of fish blood are discussed.
