By means of ion chromatography the extensive and significantly higher loss of ions of G. pulex and G. fossarum in acid water (pH 3.0) as compared to neutral water is proved. While cations are being accumulated in the water, some ions (Na+, Cl−) leave the hemolymph in important percentage, others increase highly after being set free from the cells (K+ and Ca2+). The loss of cations with Asellus aquaticus in acid water (pH 3) is clearly lower than with Gammarus, and it is not significantly higher than when the animals are put into neutral water.
