Bioaccumulation of trace elements and health risk predictions in edible tissues of the Marsh Frog
(SpringerNature, 2021)Certain amphibian species have long served as a valuable protein source for humans, in addition to being good bioindicators for environmental pollutants. Hence, to investigate the consumption outcomes leading to potential ... -
Characterization of microplastic pollution in tadpoles living in small water-bodies from Rize, the northeast of Turkey
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2020)Microplastic pollution is a growing problem for Turkey and other countries, but most studies focus on the pollution in oceans and seas. To understand the relationship between microplastics, fresh water, and terrestrial ... -
Potential distribution under different climatic scenarios of climate change of the vulnerable Caucasian salamander (Mertensiella caucasica): A case study of the Caucasus Hotspot
(Springer, 2018)Amphibians are strongly affected by climate change like many vertebrate animals. To address this problematic situation, we examined the potential effect of climate change on the distribution of Mertensiella caucasica (Waga, ... -
Road mortality report of the genus bufo in northeastern Türkiye
(Springer, 2023)Abstract: Amphibians, especially those living near lakes, wetlands, and small water bodies, are the most vulnerable vertebrate group to vehicle collision. The aim of this study was to monitor and determine the causes of ... -
Spatiotemporal distribution of microplastics in true frogs (Ranidae: Pelophylax) populations from Turkiye
(Elsevier, 2023)Microplastics (MPs), which are of increasing concern in almost all ecosystems, continue to be an environmental threat. In the present study, the presence of MPs is investigated by using the gastrointestinal tracts (GITs) ... -
Taxonomic assessment and distribution of common toads (Bufo bufo and B. verrucosissimus) in Turkey based on morphological and molecular data
(Brill, 2020)The Bufo bufo species group includes four species distributed in the western Palearctic: B. bufo. B. eichwaldii, B. spinosus and B. verrucosissimus. Both B. bufo and B. verrucosissimus are known to occur in Turkey, but ... -
Trace element bioaccumulation and health risk assessment derived from leg consumption of the marsh frog, Pelophylax ridibundus (Pallas, 1771)
(Ege University, 2022)Amphibians, which can live in aquatic and terrestrial environments, are a good indicator of pollution in these areas. Although frog leg is not consumed frequently in some cuisines, including Turkey, it is important in terms ...
