Linking organochlorine exposure to biomarker response patterns in Anurans : a case study of Müller's clawed frog (Xenopus muelleri) from a tropical malaria vector control region

Organochlorine pesticides are highly persistent in aquatic ecosystems. Amphibians, specifically anurans, play an intricate part in the aquatic food web, and have very permeable skin which makes them prone to bioaccumulation of persistent pollutants.
