Summary

Total plasma Mg++ and Ca++, Mg++ in erythrocytes as well as protein-bound plasma Mg++ were investigated in wild and hatchery-reared smolts. The proportion of plasma Mg++ which was bound to plasma protein did not change significantly during entry into seawater, even though the in vitro addition of exogenous Mg++ to the plasma showed that additional binding was possible.
