Background The study is part of a collaborative project (Inuendo), aiming to assess the
impact of dietary persistent organochlorine pollutants (POPs) on human fertility. The aims …

BACKGROUND: Animal and epidemiologic data indicate that exposure to persistent
organochlorine pollutants (POPs) may disrupt the hypothalamus–pituitary–thyroid (HPT) and …

Organochlorines are widespread pollutants in humans. Concern about adverse reproductive
effects of these compounds arises from accidental exposure of humans and experimental …

Based on observations in animals, there is an increasing evidence that a number of
persistent organochlorine pollutants can alter the endocrine homeostasis, this resulting in …

There have been numerous studies that suggest that sperm concentrations (sperm counts)
are declining in men. However, other studies suggest that sperm counts are not declining or …

Objective Persistent organohalogen pollutant (POP) exposure may have a negative impact
on reproductive function. The objective of this study was to assess the impact of POP …

BACKGROUND: Persistent organochlorine pollutants (POP), such as polychlorinated
biphenyls (PCB) and dichlorodiphenyldichloroethylene (p, p′-DDE), are widely found in the …
