    /. Mar. biol. Ass. India, 1965, 8 (1): 28-56 EFFECTS OF ANAESTHETICS ON THE BEHAVIOUR OF MULLET FINGERLINGS AND THE SCOPE OF USING THESE IN DIFFERENT FISHERY PROCEDURES-!* By V. S. DURVE** AND S. K. DHARMA RAJA Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute, Mandapam Camp INTRODUCTION THE use of anaesthetics in fishery work, mainly in the transport of live-fish and also in handling fish for tagging, fin-clipping, weighing and stripping has been recognised by fishery workers everywhere. In live-fish transport, anaesthetics are useful in lowering the metabolic activity of fish, which facilitates the transport of more fish in a given quantity of water for a longer time. It has also been proved that anaes­ thetics make the otherwise time consuming work of tagging and fin-clipping much easier and also lower the mortality of the fish due to handling. Considerable effort has gone into a search for a proper anaesthetic and its different concentrations to give varying degrees of anaesthesia useful for works from tagging to transport of live-fish. Several methods have been used to produce anaesthesia. Abramowitz (1937), Parker (1937, 1939), Abramowitz et al. (1940) Osborn (1938, 1941) immersed fishes in crushed ice or ice water. Haskell (1940) employed electric shock to produce a paralysis lasting about two minutes. It is doubtful whether the anaesthesia induced by these methods is similar to that induced by chemicals. The disadvantages of such methods have been discussed by Pickford and Atz (1957). Chemicals used to anaesthetize fishes include Ether, Urethane, Chlorobutanol, MS-222 SANDOZ, Sodium Amytal and Chloral Hydrate, besides 8 to 9 others.

  • Administrative Records, Texas Department of Criminal Justice
    Consistent with the terms of the Court’s May 22, 2017 scheduling order, the record has been redacted for all information that plaintiff, Texas Department of Criminal Justice (Texas), has identified as confidential. In addition, Defendants have also redacted information that the drug’s supplier and broker have separately advised the agency they consider confidential and private, as well as information the agency itself generally treats as confidential. This information has been redacted pending final FDA’s review of confidentiality claims, and our filing of the record with these redactions does not necessarily reflect our agreement with all of the claims of confidentiality Defendants have received. Defendants explicitly reserve the right to make an independent determination regarding the proper scope of redactions at a later time. Should we identify any of Texas’s redactions that are over-broad or otherwise improper, we will work with Texas’s counsel to revise the redactions in the record.
