Abstract/Contents: | Presents a study that investigates the acute toxicity of a commercial formulation of glyphosate to the tadpoles of the western chorus frog (Pseudacris triseriata) and plains leopard frog (Rana blairi) and to investigate "whether acute exposure to this formulation affected post-exposure tadpole growth." Results suggest that, "even exposure to relatively low concentrations for a short period of time, as might be experienced in an accidental spill scenario or with an application to clear aquatic vegetation, appears to induce high mortality in tadpoles of both species." However, it appears that acute exposure to low levels of this commercial formulation does not affect future performance of these tadpoles." |
