Metal Changes in Pre- and Post-metamorphic Wood Frog (Lithobates sylvaticus) Tadpoles: Implications for Ecotoxicological Studies.

Metabolic changes and intestinal remodelling must be considered when studying pollutants in developing anuran larvae. PMID: 32313976 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
