Ecotoxicological risk assessment of atrazine in amphibians

Although the ecological risks of atrazine in surface waters have been extensively reviewed with respect to its potential effects on a number of components of ecological systems, there is a lack of specific data on amphibians, especially for endpoints related to development and reproduction. To assess whether atrazine causes adverse effects in frogs through endocrine-mediated mechanisms, several hypotheses were tested in laboratory and field …
