De samenvatting (In het engels helaas:
During hypoxia, oxyregulating water-breathers usually control O2 uptake by changing ventilatory convection. Using optical techniques we studied ventilation, circulation and respiratory control in small animals, a millimetre in size, which were more or less pronounced oxyregulators (Daphnia magna, Folsomia candida). In Daphnia we found no adaptive changes in the ventilatory water flow rate during hypoxia. Frequency and amplitude of the movements of the thoracic limbs remained constant during this environmental condition. During anoxia there was a reduction in both. In contrast to ventilatory convection, the circulatory blood flow rate adapted to hypoxia. At low oxygen partial pressures, the heart frequency strongly increased (compensatory tachycardia) in Daphnia, whereas the stroke volume remained constant. Accordingly, there was an increase in cardiac output during hypoxia. Folsomia also showed a marked increase of heart frequency during severe hypoxia. The adaptive changes in blood flow rate should help to maintain sufficient partial pressure differences between medium, blood and tissues and should help to avoid anoxic zones in the animal. During anoxia, the heart continued to beat in Daphnia (at a rate more or less similar to normoxia, but with a reduced stroke volume) for periods of many hours. The heart frequency showed typical courses during anoxia and subsequent normoxia, which are probably related to energy metabolism.
