Acute Toxic Effects of the Herbicide Formulation Focus® Ultra on Embryos and Larvae of the Moroccan Painted Frog, Discoglossus scovazzi

Abstract: For regulatory and scientific purposes, there is a need to understand the sensitivity of a wider variety of wild species of amphibians and the sensitivities within their life stages to chemicals of widespread use such as herbicides. We investigated the acute toxic effects of the herbicide formulation Focus Ultra [with the active ingredient (a.i.) cycloxydim plus solvent naphtha and sodium dioctylsulphosuccinate as added substances] on embryos and early stage larvae of the Moroccan painted frog (Discoglossus sc… Show more

“…Growth inhibition due to Focus Ultra exposure in the early R. temporaria larvae of the present study started at comparable low test concentrations as in a previous study [17]. In the present study, growth inhibition was significantly increased in the lowest Roundup UltraMax test concentrations (Figure 4).…”
