Identification of Estrogenic Chemicals in STW Effluent. 1. Chemical Fractionation and in Vitro Biological Screening

TL;DR: In this article, a fractionation system combined with an in vitro assay for detecting estrogenic activity was developed in order to isolate and identify the major estrogenic chemicals present in seven sewage-treatment works (STW) effluents, receiving primarily domestic effluent, discharging into British rivers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of Estrogenic Chemicals in STW Effluent. 2. In Vivo Responses in Trout and Roach

TL;DR: The occurrence of certain natural and synthetic steroidal estrogens in the final effluent from STW has been demonstrated and the response of adult male and female roach following exposure to 17β-estradiol was compared to the response to the alkylphenolic xenoestrogen.
Journal ArticleDOI

The effect of algal and artificial diets on the growth and fatty acid composition of Crassostrea gigas Spat

TL;DR: Crassostrea gigas spat were fed diets of Pavlova lutheri, Dunaliella tertiolecta or Tetraselmis suecica as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Concentrations of alkylphenols in rivers and estuaries in England and Wales

TL;DR: A preliminary survey of concentrations of nonylphenol and octylphenol in rivers and estuaries in England and Wales was undertaken to establish environmental concentrations and to support a biological field programme as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Long-Term Temporal Changes in the Estrogenic Composition of Treated Sewage Effluent and Its Biological Effects on Fish

TL;DR: It was established that the concentrations of natural steroid estrogens and xenoestrogens in a treated sewage effluent fluctuated temporally (over 8 months), from between 36 and 308 ng/L and between <0.2 (detection limit) and 10.7 μg/L, respectively.
