The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Effects of different capture techniques on the physiological condition of bonefish Albula vulpes evaluated using field diagnostic tools (2008, methodology): “At a minimum, these tools provide researchers the opportunity to compare relative differences among treatments (Morgan & Iwama, 1997; Wells & Pankhurst, 1999) and when calibrated, they may provide detailed information on absolute differences (Wells et al., 2003; Venn Beecham et al., 2006).”
Physiological and behavioural consequences of catch-and-release angling on northern pike (Esox lucius L.) (2009, unknown): “These field meters have been shown to produce results that are comparable to laboratory values for fish and other animals (e.g., Morgan and Iwama, 1997; Wells and Pankhurst, 1999) and even if minor deviations in values from laboratory assays exist, the relative differences among treatments are usefu”
Stress Indicators in Fish (2016, background): “Also, because plasma is a conventional tissue for measuring physiological parameters, there are a number of studies that exist to aid in the interpretation of values, and assays or meters are commercially available to facilitate data generation (Wells and Pankhurst, 1999; Beecham et al., 2006).”
