Influence of thyroid hormone on the nitrogen excretion and the resistance of goldfish, Carassius auratus, to anoxia

Daily determinations on the nitrogen exoretion in thyroid-treated goldfish and subsequent death by anoxia showed that thyroxin immersion caused a high initial rise in the nitrogen excretion.
