Salt loss into salt-free urea solutions, after adaptation to sea water diluted to 15, 10, 5 and 1 g. Cl/L., equivalent to NaCl concentrations of 450, 300, 150 and 30 urea molarity set in relation to 2 X salt molarity. Note especially that salt loss level after adaptation to 10 g. Cl/L. (approximately milliosmolarity 2 X 300) increases with urea concentration, prob- ably as an injury effect. Thin lines marked (Na) are calculated as 2 X the Na-millimolarity as determined by flame photometry; the rest by Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Marine Biological Laboratory (Woods Hole, Mass. ); Marine Biological Laboratory (Woods Hole, Mass. ).
