Thermoregulatory effects of ingested doses of Statfjord A crude oil and of this oil mixed with the dispersant Finasol OSR-5 were studied in adult domestic ducks (Anas platyrhynchos) exposed to ambient temperatures of +16 degrees C and -17 degrees C. The data show that ingestion of both the crude and the oil-dispersant mixture resulted in an increased body temperature during exposure to the low ambient temperature (-17 degrees C). Neither contaminant had any effect on body temperature during exposure to +16 degrees C. Ingestion of the contaminants had no effect on metabolic heat production at either ambient temperature. The breast skin temperature of the ducks in both contaminated groups was significantly decreased when the ducks were exposed to the low ambient temperature. This indicates that the increase in body temperature observed in the contaminated ducks at the low ambient temperature is due to an increase in peripheral vasoconstriction.
研究了成年家鸭（绿头鸭）摄入不同剂量的Statfjord A原油以及该原油与分散剂Finasol OSR-5混合油后的体温调节效应，实验环境温度分别为+16℃和-17℃。数据表明，在暴露于低温环境（-17℃）时，摄入原油及原油-分散剂混合物均会导致体温升高。在暴露于+16℃环境时，两种污染物均对体温无影响。在两种环境温度下，摄入污染物对代谢产热均无影响。当暴露于低温环境时，两个受污染组家鸭的胸部皮肤温度均显著降低。这表明，在低温环境下受污染家鸭体温升高是由于外周血管收缩增强所致。
