description

Many studies have investigated the effects transmitters (acoustic or radio) have on the condition, behavior, and survival of fish; however, few studies have investigated this in relation to anesthetic exposure. We investigated stress responses to prolonged MS-222 exposure after stage 4 anesthetic induction in surgically implanted juvenile Chinook salmon Oncorhynchus tshawytscha. Survival, tag loss, plasma cortisol concentration, and blood [Na+], [K+], [Ca2+], and pH were measured immediately following anesthetic exposure and surgical implantation. Responses were also measured 1, 7, and 14 days post-treatment. Throughout the study, there were no mortalities or tag loss. MS-222 was effective at delaying cortisol release, but anesthetic exposure did result in osmotic disturbances, with greater variation in longer MS-222 time exposures. From day 1 to day 14, [Na+], [Ca2+], and pH significantly decreased, while cortisol significantly increased in MS-222 exposed fish and was exacerbated by surgical implantation. There was a significant interaction between MS-222 time exposure and observation day for [Na+], [Ca2+], [K+], and pH; variations were seen in the longer time exposures, although not consistently. Stress responses suggest that increased exposure to MS-222 can lead to elevated stress in surgically implanted fish.

Objective

To determine the stress responses (immediate

and long-term) associated with extended MS-222

exposure for surgically implanted juvenile

Chinook salmon.

Anesthetic exposure alter performance over time?

Mortality?

Tag loss…

Wagner et al. 2013 5

Methods: Study Design

3 Treatment Groups

Anesthetic Control (AC) – no anesthetic exposure or

surgical implantation

Surgical Control (SC) – exposed to MS-222 until Stage

4 Induction; no surgical implantation

Surgically Implanted (SI) – exposed to MS-222 for

varying time exposures; surgically implanted

0, 3, 5, 6, 9, 12, or 15 minutes past Stage 4

Summary

Immediate responses (Day 0)

Delayed cortisol release

Resulted in osmotic disturbances

variation in longer exposures

Long-term responses (Days 1, 7, and 14)

Na+, Ca2+, and pH over time

Cortisol over time

variation in longer exposures

Wagner et al. 2013 17

Impacts on Field Studies

Stress response levels not stabilized by release

(18-24 hours)

Longer MS-222 exposures

Altered performance or behavior?

Higher cortisol with surgical implantation

Altered performance or behavior?
