Multiple measurements (106 replicates, plus initial and end background measurements) of oxygen consumption in a zebrafish, Danio rerio, obtained using intermittent flow respirometry. Data kindly provided by Davide Thambithurai (University of Glasgow). Note, the data has been injected with random noise, and volume and mass below are not the actual values from the experiment.
zeb_intermittent.rdA data frame object consisting of 2 columns (time and dissolved oxygen) and 79251 rows (approx 22h of data).
Dissolved oxygen units: mg/L
Time units: seconds
Chamber volume (L): 0.12
Specimen wet mass (kg): `0.0009
Temperature (°C): 25
Salinity: 0
Atm. Pressure (bar): 1.013253
Replicate structure (Rows - Experiment section):
1:4999 - Start background recording
5000:5839 - First replicate for MMR (14 mins duration)
5840:75139 - 105 further replicates of 11 minutes duration each (660 rows)
