NOAA Tech Memo NMFS NWFSC-8: Contaminant Exposure in Juvenile Salmon (cont): Figure 7

Figure 7.  Total immunoglobulin as determined by an ELISA.  The immunoglobulin units/µL of plasma were determined for chinook salmon collected from the various hatcheries (lightly shaded box) and the corresponding estuarine systems (darkly shaded box), GRH = Green River Hatchery, KH = Kalama Creek Hatchery, PH=Puyallup River Hatchery, and SH=Skykomish River Hatchery.  Other site designations are as described in Figure 2.  Data are expressed as mean ± standard error.  The numbers overlaying the histograms represent the number of salmon from that area sampled.
