Calcein is an organic compound that can be used to mark fish by either immersion or injection. It is a fluorescing compound that can be seen with ultraviolet light. ... Results demonstrate that it works well for marking the otoliths of newly immerged fish in addition to marking the scales. It is not clear ... if this will work for adult fish (i.e., if the mark will persist). Results to date suggest that the mark [does not] persist well once exposed to light. As such, it [is not] likely to be useful for scale marking ... 2, record 1, English, - scale%20marking

La principale limite des diverses techniques de fluoromarquage des otolithes est la nécessité de devoir sacrifier le poisson pour rechercher la présence éventuelle d’une marque. La méthode est donc mieux adaptée aux études portant sur les pêcheries(poissons pêchés et prélevés par les pêcheurs) que sur la fraction non exploitée des populations. Des études récentes utilisant la calcéine en balnéation suggèrent des résultats prometteurs(marquage des écailles et des rayons de nageoires) pour des suivis à court terme. En effet, elles présentent l'avantage de permettre la détection du marquage sur des poissons vivants mais le marquage des pièces extérieures n’ est pas définitif. 1, record 1, French, - marquage%20des%20%C3%A9cailles
