Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) fry were injected intramuscularly with 3H-p,p′-DDT and 14C-aldrin either alone or as a mixture at concentrations similar to those found in "naturally" contaminated fish; their rates of metabolism and clearance were then compared 3H-p,p′-DDT was cleared slowly from the fish: approximately 60% of the injected material remained 8 wk after injection. 14C-aldrin was cleared much more rapidly, only 55% of the injected material remaining in the fish 1 day after injection and less than 10% remaining at the end of the experiment 3H-p,p′-DDT was dehydrochlorinated to p,p′-DDE; assuming an exponential rate of conversion, its half-life was 60 days. In contrast, 50% of the aldrin residues in the fish were epoxidized to dieldrin within 2 days. No interactions between the insecticides were observed although aldrin apparently induced a slight increase in the fraction of total body weight accounted for by liver.

Growth of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) parr was studied at environmental salinities of 0.1, 10, and 20‰ in relation to daily rations of 0, 1.0, 1.5, 2.2, and 2.9% of dry body weight. Instantaneous growth rates and food conversion efficiencies for fish in each salinity were similar. Maintenance ration was slightly more in 20‰ than in either the salinity approximately isosmotic with blood (10%) or in fresh water (0.1%).
