Anesthetic and Surgical Techniques for Pacific Salmon

Abstract
An operating table and associated anesthetizing system for salmonids are described in detail. Techniques for vascular and urinary cannulation and sampling are also described along with comments on the use of physiological salines and anticoagulants. Utilization of these techniques and apparatus can make fish as convenient and useful an experimental animal as the laboratory rat.
