Are the damaging effects induced by the imazethapyr formulation Pivot® H in Boana pulchella (Anura) reversible upon ceasing exposure?

In the present study, the damage recovery capabilities of Boana pulchella tadpoles after acute exposure (96 h) to 0.39 mg/L concentration of the imazethapyr (IMZT)-based herbicide formulation Pivot® H (25% IMZT LC50 value) were assessed during a period of 7 to −21 days. To appraise the recovery capabilities, frequency of micronuclei (MNs), other nuclear abnormalities and DNA single-strand breaks evaluated by single cell gel electrophoresis assay...
