Stress response involves various physiological changes, including alteration in hematological parameters closely related to the response of fish to the environment. 4-tert-octylphenol (OP) is one of the worldwide-used ...

The effect of different additives on the cloud point (CP) of an octylphenol ethoxylate (OPEO30) aqueous solution was investigated. The CP of OPEO30 is higher than 100 C due to its approximately 30 oxyethylene units per ...

Here, we analyzed the recovery of the reproductive capability in male Cichlasoma dimerus after exposure to sublethal concentrations of 4-tert-octylphenol (OP), a demonstrated estrogenic chemical. Adult fish were exposed ...

In oviparous vertebrates, vitellogenin (VTG) is mainly produced by the liver in response to estrogen(E2) and its synthesis is traditionally coupled to estrogen receptor alpha induction. Even though VTG isa female-specific ...

The aim of this study was to describe the time-course of estrogen-induced gene expression, corresponding plasma protein detection and histological alterations after cessation of octylphenol (OP) exposure of Cichlasoma ...

Gas chromatography with mass spectrometry is frequently used for the quantification of many classes of substances, including alkylphenols. Alkylphenol polyethoxylates are nonionic surfactants used in a wide variety of ...

Estrogenic chemicals are often detected in the aquatic environment and can negatively affect animal development and reproduction. In teleost fishes, the hormonal regulation during a critical period of larval development ...
