  • Consequently, the blood acid-base regulation partly corresponds to the physiological activities or stressors (Iwama et al., 1989). Interestingly, the blood pH in the fish studied presently was positively related to their muscle pH. It is implied that organic tissues in fish may be interactional on systemic acid-base homeostasis. However, indirect evidence that handling stresses significantly elevated both blood and muscle lactic acids in earlier work supports the observations (Spotts and Lutz, 1981; Wood et al., 1983)
