What is Aquatic Oxygen Analysis about?

Measuring oxygen consumption rates in aquatic media is the only practical method for determining the metabolic rates of cell cultures and aquatic organisms. This chapter describes the three principal variations of aquatic respirometry—closed and open system (or flow-through) respirometry, and headspace respirometry—together with procedures for calibrating aquatic respirometry systems, acquiring data from them, and analyzing the resulting data. Appendix 2 describes the operation of the widely used Clark dissolved oxygen electrode, the characteristics of common electrode membrane materials, and necessary routine maintenance. Common problems are discussed and trouble-shooting guides are included.
