Cellular and Molecular Approaches to Fish Ionic Regulation (eBook)

Many physiological processes are regulated by the movement of ions into and out of organs, tissues, and cells. During the past decade, a variety of new techniques and approaches have contributed to a deeper understanding of the myriad influences ions have on the function and structure of organisms. From respiration and excretion to neurological control and metabolic processing, ions and their regulation occupy a central role in physiology of fish as well as other organisms.

Key Features
* Comprehensive update of ionic regulation in fish
* Focuses on wide variety of organ systems and the influence of ions on organ system function
* Contributions from an international group
