Endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) in municipal effluents directly affect the sexual
development and reproductive success of fishes, but indirect effects on invertebrate prey or …

Natural and synthetic steroid sex hormones, including those administered to humans and
livestock as pharmaceuticals, constitute an important class of environmental endocrine …

Endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) have been detected in surface waters worldwide
and can lead to developmental and reproductive disruption in exposed fishes. In the US …

Estrogenic discharges are known or suspected to be present in many United Kingdom

Numerous environmental chemicals possess estrogen-like properties. At elevated doses,
natural estrogens and environmental estrogen-like chemicals are known to produce adverse …

Potential effects of exposure to the synthetic estrogen 17α‐ethynylestradiol (EE2) were
examined in several species of fish from a lake experimentally treated with environmentally …

Environmental pollutants, including estrogens, are widespread in aquatic environments
frequently as a result of treated wastewater effluent discharged. Exposure to estrogens has …

Temporal and spatial variability in estrogenicity has been documented for many treated
wastewater effluents with the consequences of this variability on the expression of …

The sheepshead minnow (Cyprinodon variegatus Lacépède), an estuarine fish species, was
exposed to 17α‐ethynyl‐estradiol (EE2) at nominal test concentrations of 0.2, 2, 20, 200 …

Estrogenic compounds such as 17β-estradiol (E2) and its analogs are present in the aquatic
