  • 摘要:To manage health conditions of farmed fish and other living creatures, a simple method to measure bioelectric signals of the creatures in seawater is expected. A novel method to measure bioelectric signals by utilizing the conductivity of seawater surrounding the entire body of a fish is proposed. As for the proposed method, a needle-type internal electrode is inserted into the fish’s muscle at a certain measurement point, and an external electrode is sunk in seawater. The internal electrode is isolated from the seawater by virtue of being inserted in the fish. Bioelectric signals generated between the external and internal electrodes are then measured. By sharing the external electrode with the internal electrode, it is possible to measure bioelectric signals with half the number of bioelectrodes used by conventional methods. To demonstrate the practicality of the proposed method, two internal electrodes were inserted into different parts (above the gills and near the tail) of three fish (Parajulis poecilepterus, ca. 20 cm fork length) kept in a tank. The proposed method obtained reliable bioelectric signals corresponding to electrocardiograms (ECGs) and electromyograms (EMGs) from each part of the individual fish.
