Investigation of Potassium Chloride for Euthanasia of Anesthetized African Clawed Frogs (Xenopus laevis)
Olagbaju, T. T., Troan, B. V., & Balko, J. A. (2023, June 13). Journal of the American Association for Laboratory Animal Science.
MeSH headings : Female; Animals; Potassium Chloride; Xenopus laevis; Ice; Euthanasia, Animal / methods; Potassium
topics (OpenAlex): Animal testing and alternatives; Amphibian and Reptile Biology; Immunotoxicology and immune responses
TL;DR:
Return to MS-222 solution after KCl administration may be warranted to prevent unintended, premature anesthetic recovery prior to death of anesthetized African clawed frogs.

Proliferative parathyroid lesions in captive-bred American bullfrogs (Lithobates catesbeianus) with metabolic bone disease
Villasenor, A., Olagbaju, T., Parsley, A., & Meritet, D. (2023, April 26). Journal of Comparative Pathology, Vol. 203, pp. 1–4.
author keywords: American bullfrog; bone disease; cell proliferation; parathyroid gland
MeSH headings : Animals; United States; Rana catesbeiana; Parathyroid Glands; Anura; Bone Diseases, Metabolic / veterinary
topics (OpenAlex): Amphibian and Reptile Biology; Turtle Biology and Conservation; Primate Behavior and Ecology
TL;DR:
Three American bullfrogs living in a captive colony were euthanized due to clinical concern for metabolic bone disease secondary to lack of consistent dietary supplementation with vitamin D3, and cystic dilation and variable proliferation of unidentified structures were revealed.
