Parameters of acid-base and energy status were studied by in vivo P-31-nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy in three White Sea Littorina spp. (L. littorea, L. saxatilis and L, obtusata) during prolonged anaerobiosis in freshwater. Intracellular DF-I decreased significantly, especially during the early period of anaerobiosis, but later the decrease in intracellular pH slowed down considerably, suggesting a capacity for intracellular pH regulation in all three species. There was a trend for intracellular pH to fall most rapidly in the least freshwater-resistant species, L. ohtusata, as compared to the most resistant, L. littorea. Non-bicarbonate, non-phosphate buffer values estimated by the homogenate technique were similar ill the three studied species (28-37 mmol pH(-1) kg(-1) wet weight) and did not change during freshwater exposure. The CaCO3 buffer value of the foot tissues was considerably higher (171-218 mmol pH(-1) kg(-1) wet weight) and decreased significantly during freshwater exposure. The contribution of the multiple tissue buffering systems to intracellular pH regulation in Littorina spp. shifts between different stages of freshwater exposure. Initially. the non-bicarbonate, non-phosphate tissue buffering system seems to be of major importance for metabolic proton buffering at intracellular pH between 7.5 and 7.0. During later stages of anaerobiosis and at lower intracellular pH, the CaCO3 buffer is involved in proton buffering. Decrease in the CaCO3 buffer value during freshwater exposure was in quantitative agreement with the amount of metabolic protons buffered, thus suggesting that CaCO3 tissue stores may serve as a major buffering system during prolonged anaerobiosis in Littorina spp.
