What is Maneb Toxicity in Toad Tadpoles about?

The study investigates the acute toxicity of the pesticide maneb on tadpoles of the common toad (Bufo bufo) and green toad (Pseudepidalea viridis), revealing LC50 values of 1.966 mg L-1 and 0.332 mg L-1 respectively. Significant morphological and histopathological anomalies, including visceral oedema and liver necrosis, were observed, with B. bufo showing greater resilience to maneb than P. viridis. The findings highlight the need for further research into the toxic mechanisms of maneb in amphibians.
