Exposure to 17α-ethinylestradiol (EE2), a synthetic estrogen, has previously been shown to
decrease reproductive endocrine status and egg production in northern mummichog …

A short-term reproductive bioassay with the mummichog (Fundulus heteroclitus) was
developed to link changes in endocrine status to reproductive potential subsequent to …

Previous studies have shown that mummichog (Fundulus heteroclitus; a lunar,
asynchronous-spawning killifish of the western Atlantic) exposed to 17α-ethynylestradiol …

The presence of endocrine active compounds such as estrogens in treated wastewater
effluent and their effects on aquatic life are causing concern among aquatic resource …

Abstract 17α‐Ethinylestradiol (EE2) is a potent estrogen used in birth‐control pills. Previous
laboratory and field studies have shown negative impacts in a variety of fish species after …

We have developed a short‐term gonadal recrudescence test with the estuarine
mummichog (Fundulus heteroclitus) and determined endocrine end points sensitive to a …

Mature male goldfish were exposed to different concentrations of the natural hormone 17β-
estradiol (E2). Two methods of exposure were employed, via ingestion at 0, 1, 10 and 100 …

The endocrine disrupting effects of estrogenic compounds in surface waters on fish, such as
feminization of males and altered sex ratios, may also occur in aquatic invertebrates …

To evaluate the use of morphological abnormalities for standard testing of endocrine‐
disrupting substances (EDS), we tested the hypothesis that developmental abnormalities are …

The widespread use of the synthetic estrogen 17 α-ethinylestradiol (EE 2) has resulted in
elevated levels in aquatic environments, where it is known to act as an endocrine disrupting …
