Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the biological effects of PET microfibers and their underlying mechanisms in early-staged sheepshead minnows (Cyprinodon variegatus). Method: PET microfibers (about 13 μm diameter × 106 μm length) were prepared by cutting PET threads and treated to sheepshead...
Adult male marine fish were exposed to 100ng/L of ethinyl estradiol (EE2) for 7 days in 1.8L vessels, dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) was used as carrier never reaching concentrations > 0.001% v/v. The same volume of DMSO was added to the solvent control vessels. Culture conditions, monitored daily, were...
Fifteen adult male Cyprinodon variegatus were exposed individually to 10µg/L of bisphenol A (BPA) for 7 days in 1.8L vessels and other fifteen to 10 µg/L of BPA metabolite, 4-methyl-2,4-bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)pent-1-ene (MBP) under the same conditions. Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) was used as a carrier at...
