Fig. 1. (A) Light microscopy image of whiting sickle cells sampled immediately
after capture of fish by hook and line. (B) Sickle cell fraction in rainbow
trout (N=8), common carp (N=5) and whiting (N=5)
red blood cells (RBCs) immediately after being caught by hook and line, in
freshly sampled whiting RBCs after recovery in the holding tank for 24 h or
more than one week (N=4 and 8, respectively) and in washed RBCs after
16–24 h storage (N=12). Small light microscopy images show the
appearance of representative cells from the column immediately below. In A and
B, scale bars correspond to 10 µm,
shows examples of cells with
granular texture and
shows examples of cells with visible bars. In B,
* indicates significant difference (P<0.05) from value
for whiting immediately after being caught. Values are means ± s.d.
