Anaesthetization of Arctic charr Salvelinus alpinus with tricaine methanesulphonate or 2‐phenoxyethanol did not alter plasma protein, glucose, free amino acid, non‐esterified fatty acid, ion or osmolality levels, suggesting that their use allows for the normal determination of these plasma variables.
