Abstract:
... Overabundance of endocrine disruptors (EDs), such as steroid estrogens, in the natural environment disrupts hormone synthesis in aquatic organisms. Livestock and wastewater outflows contribute measurable quantities of steroid estrogens into the environment where they are picked up and transported via surface runoff and feedlot effluents into water matrices. E1, E2β, E2α, E3 and EE2 are the most pr ...

Abstract:
... Regarding endocrine disrupting chemicals, an impact on aquatic organisms at already very low concentrations is observed. Consequently, there is a need for sensitive analytical methods. Currently, no instrumental analysis methods exist that fulfil this requirement. To overcome these limitations, effect-based methods (EBMs) are one option for screening and quantification. Determination of agonistic ...
