Abstract
In the course of work on osmotic regulation of estuarine invertebrates, it was found that cryoscopic and vapour-pressure methods do not yield reproducible results in a tropical place such as Madras. The potentiometric method outlined here, which is based on the predominance of chloride ions in the blood of animals and in sea water, facilitates a continuous picture of changes in the concentration of the blood of an animal in a given medium and helps us to measure the amount of energy involved.
