| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We developed wireless biosensor system to monitor the physiological condition of fish. As an important indicator of stress, glucose concentrations are monitored using in vitro blood analysis. This system enables artificial stress-free and non-lethal analysis, and allows for reliable real-time monitoring of fish stress. We investigated stress due to alterations in water chemistry, including dissolved oxygen and ammonia-nitrogen compounds. Stress perceived from behavioural interactions, including attacking behaviour and visual irritation, was also monitored. Water chemistry alterations induced increases in the glucose concentration (stress) that decreased with removal of the stimulus. For behavioural interactions, stress levels change with avoidance, sensory behaviour and activity. We believe that the proposed biosensor system could be useful for rapid, reliable, and convenient analysis of the fish physiological condition and accurately reflects the stress experienced by fish.
