Excerpt from Observations on Serology of TunaThe tuna bloods used in these studies were obtained either as frozen whole bloods transported to Santa Barbara by air, or as fresh bloods collected in the vicinity of Oahu. Bloods were taken from living fish by various methods such as heart puncture, tail bleeding, or cutting the conus arteriosus at its narrowest constriction beneath the gills. The author's experience was that the most practical method was the latter, cutting the vessel with a knife and collecting the blood in a wide mouth screw cap glass bottle (plastic is recommended for future work). Twenty five to 100 milliliters of blood could readily be obtained in this way from fish averaging two to three feet in length.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
