Publication Abstract

Effects of oestrogenic substances in the aquatic environment

P. Matthiessen and J.P. Sumpter

This is a review of the effects of oestrogens and their mimics in the aquatic environment. In essence, it supports our current research strategy of studying the effects of endocrine disruptors at the fish population level. It is an expansion of an earlier mini-review which covered solely our own research.
