在室内进行了铜、镉对中华哲水蚤（Calanus sinicus Brodsky）氨基酸含量影响实验。结果表明，当外加重金属浓度较低时（Cu, 2-10μg/L; Cd, 10-150μg/L），动物各种氨基酸含量明显提高，总氨基酸含量比对照组约增加10-31%；重金属浓度提高时，动物氨基酸含量则出现下降趋势，说明较低浓度重金属对动物有刺激效应，此摄食活动加强，增加了从摄食获得的营养成分；浓度提高则产生抑制效应。因此，氨基酸含量的变化，可作桡足类对外界重金属污染物作出生理反应的指标之一。文中对某些特殊氨基酸含量的变及机制也进行了讨论。

By exposure to 12×10-3mol/dm3K+ for 24h, more than 90% of planktonic larvae of Babylonia formosae and B. areolata were effectively induced to metamorphose completely. 15×10-3mol/dm3K+exerted toxic effect on larval B. areolata over a 24-h period, but produced better results of induction by 12h exposure. Metamorphosed juveniles induced by increased by K+could move and feed normally. Percent metamorphosis increased with average shell height for K+-induced larvae. L-DOPA, epinephrine and norepinephrine ranging from 5.5×10-6 to 5.5×10-5mol/dm3 had no inductive activity to metamorphosis in larval B. areolata, whereas the rate of metamorphosis induced by dopamine at a concentration of 10-4mol/dm3 was approximately half less than that by 12×10-3mol/dm3K+. TEA (a K+-channel blocker) did not inhibit metamorphosis in the two Babylonia larvae by induction of K+. Based on the results of K+-induced experiments, it is preliminarily suggested that shell height of larvae achieving metamorphic competence was in the range of 860.2～1009.8μm for B. fbrmosae, and 849.6～956.0μm for B. areolata. In addition, planktonic larvae of the two Babylonia had delayed metamorphosis.

中华假磷虾体干重与体长呈正指数相关：DW=3.09（BL）2.46，但室内养成的成体比海捕的相同体长的体重更大。BL=2.06+5.66AL。蜕皮间期与温呈现性负相关：IP=14.52+0.51T。自P2开始培养的假磷虾可蜕皮27～34次，海捕的抱卵雌虾，卵孵化后仍可蜕皮，即同时存在生殖生长与体质生长。瞬时生长率随了育而快速下降。蜕皮重占蜕皮前动物重的3.26%。这在生物能学估算中具有重要意义。

本文在分析厦门港中华哲水蚤元素组成基础上，研究其各项生理速率并估算碳氮收支。结果表明：摄食率与饵料含量呈线性相关，未发现饱和摄食。同化效率介于92%～96%之间。与饵料含量及摄食率无关，呼吸率与摄食率及同化率均呈线性相关，其SDA系数介于摄入碳量的9.3%（m/m）或同化碳量的9.9%（m/m）。总氮排泄率随摄食率与同化率的提高而呈线性增加，随着摄食率的提高，分配给卵生产的能量也增多，二者呈线性相关。饵料中N含量是厦门港中华哲水蚤生长的主要限制因子，当其对N的摄食率低于10.5×10-3（m/m）/d时，动物“负”生长。
