Project Description
There are over 40,000 chemical compounds registered for use in Australia; however, very few of these have been monitored in aquatic receiving environments. This study combined chemical, in vitro, in vivo and in situ techniques to determine the extent of endocrine disruption in fish living in Australian rivers.
