Ecotoxicological Characterization of Lithium as a “Timebomb” in Aquatic Systems: Tadpoles of the South American Toad <i>Rhinella arenarum</i> (Hensel, 1867) as Model Organisms
The aim of this study was to evaluate the acute lethality and chronic sublethal effects of lithium (Li) on <i>Rhinella arenarum</i> tadpoles as model organisms. First a 96 h toxicity assay was performed by exposing tadpoles to Li concentrations from 44.08 to 412.5 mg L<sup>−1</s...
