  1. 1. Effects of early life exposure to flutamide on sexual development in Xenopus tropicalis

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning; Uppsala universitet/Miljötoxikologi

    Författare :Christopher Hampton; [2019]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : While endocrine disrupting chemicals have become a serious concern in human and environmental toxicology, many of the methods used for investigating developmental toxicity require long exposure periods, and thus can be technically challenging, labour intensive and expensive. For example, the current standard method, the Larval Amphibian Growth and Development Assay (LAGDA) has an exposure period of ³130 days. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Effects of Ethinylestradiol, EE2, exposure on Poecilia reticulta male specific genes, DMRT1 and CYP11b 

    Kandidat-uppsats, Institutionen för livsvetenskaper

    Författare :Natalia Isabel Moran Lopez; [2011]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) found in every day product, can either be natural or man-made and usually exists in a concerning concentration in our aquatic environment which in turn could affect teleost reproduction. EDCs exposure in fishes may result in changes in their reproductive physiology and morphology resulting in for example induction in gonopodia in female fish when exposed to androgens and in males exposed to female estrogen a reduced sperm count and skewed sex ration.

  3. 3. Zebrafish (Danio rerio) and Japanese Medaka (Oryzias latipes) as model species for evaluation of endocrine disrupting chemicals

    L3-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Biomedical Sciences and Veterinary Public Health

    Författare :Suresh Yamani; [2004]
    Nyckelord :17; 17; vitellogenin Vtg ; zebrafish Danio rerio ; medaka Oryzias latipes ;

    Sammanfattning : Endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) are anthropogenic compounds that have similar properties as endogenous hormones in vertebrates and they are capable of interfering with the endocrine system. EDCs have been detected in sewage receiving effluents from industries and livestock feedlots. LÄS MER
