Article Synopsis
- The study examined the effects of perchlorate (ClO) and nitrate (NO) on the metamorphosis of Xenopus laevis larvae by exposing them to various concentrations over 32 days.
- Significant developmental delays and thyroid issues were noted at higher concentrations of perchlorate, with the no observed effect concentrations being 25.0 μg/L for development and 3125 μg/L for growth.
- In contrast, while nitrate exposure did not harm metamorphosis or growth, it showed a decreasing trend in developmental stage distribution at higher concentrations, indicating different impacts compared to perchlorate.
