Bleeding induces a significant drop in the concentration of hemolymph hemocyanin, as well as decreased levels of activity. Furthermore, horseshoe crabs with low hemocyanin prior to being bled have been found to be more likely to die after the procedure.

Article Synopsis
  • * Researchers measured heart and ventilation rates of lobsters in a controlled environment, finding that both rates increased with temperature, peaking at around 26.5 °C for heart rate and 27.4 °C for ventilation.
  • * Results indicated discrepancies between heart rates of confined lobsters and those moving freely, highlighting that experimental methods can significantly influence physiological measurements in marine species studies.
