- Abstract
The article presents a study on the effect of acidification on the embryological development of Rana arvalis and Rana temporaria. It states that groups of Rana temporaria's eggs were exposed to pH 4 for 24 hours to determine the differences in their sensitivity to acid water on different developmental stages. It also explores the toxic interaction between aluminium and on the embryological development as well as the effect of Sphagnum aurantiacum on frog spawn mortality.
