Information on investigation results on clawed frog Xenopus laevis.

Type	Parameters	Results	Literature
EMF	50.76 A·m^−1 ÷ 60.69 A·m^−1; 50 Hz,; days of exposure	(i) Decreased averaged growth rate in comparison to control group, decrease from 0.48 step/day to 0.43 step/day; (ii) Accelerated average time of metamorphosis of tadpoles by 2.4 days	[111]
MF	7.467 MA·m^−1	(i) Changes in pigmentation of the cerebral cortex in the case of removed egg shells; (ii) Pigmentation of a function of the exposure time; (iii) Pathological changes in pigmentation	[112]
MF	5.036 MA·m^−1; various exposure periods	(i) No pathological changes after continuous 6 hrs exposure time of eggs in cell division after transitioning to tadpoles; (ii) Similar observations for 18 hrs exposure time to less intensive filed of 3.574 MA·m^−1; (iii) Absence of morphological, functional changes, and the timing of development abnormalities in tested individuals	[113, 114]
