C Corsaro1, M Scalia, F Sinatra, G Sichel.   

Abstract

The melanin content of Rana esculenta L. liver varies according to a circannual statistically significant rhythm, as shown by variance and single cosinor analysis. The maximum is found in autumn-winter, the minimum in spring-summer. The linear regression analysis shown a negative correlation between the amount of melanin and the environmental temperature.
