Water quality criteria (WQC) play an important role in the environmental management of pollutants in different countries or institutions. It has been found that endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) can potentially alter functions of the endocrine system and consequently cause adverse effects in aquatic organisms.

To investigate the biomagnification factor (BMF) of EDCs by the polychaete, Perinereis nuntia, organisms were exposed to EDCs through their diet. BMF values ranged from 0.001 to 0.028 indicating that EDCs were not biomagnified. Elimination rates were (0.20-0.25 day(-1)) and were higher than uptake rate (0.0003-0.003 day(-1)) verifying that EDCs were ...

Development of a Peroxidase Biosensor for the Detection of Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals (EDCs)
ASME 2010 First Global Congress on NanoEngineering for Medicine and Biology, 2010Endocrine disruptor compounds are able to mimic or antagonize the effects of endogenous hormones. Phenolic compounds are one of the most abundant classes of endocrine disruptors due to their presence in a broad range of chemical manufacturing processes.

Strategies for Removing Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals (EDCs) from Wastewater
Current Pharmaceutical BiotechnologyIntroduction: Endocrine-disrupting drugs, also called endocrine disruptors or micropollutants, cause serious environmental and public health problems due to their ability to disrupt the endocrine functions of organisms and humans, even at low concentrations.

Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals (EDCs) and Fish Health- A Brief Review
International Journal of Livestock Research, 2017Health of an intact organism or its progeny depends on a proper-functioning of endocrine system to regulate the release of certain hormones that are essential for functions such as growth, metabolism, development, mood, sleep etc. Substances disrupting or interfering with normal hormonal balance and hence exerting adverse effects on health of an ...
