Impact/Purpose:
Determine extent of environmental and human exposures to EDCs, characterize sources and factors influencing these exposures, develop and evaluate risk management strategies to reduce exposures. In order to develop effective risk management strategies, it is important to understand the extent of exposures to endocrine disrupting compounds and factors influencing source-to-exposure-to-dose relationships. apply molecular indicators of exposure to estrogenic compounds in selected wastewater treatment plants located in ten USEPA Regions identify differential gene expression following exposure of fathead minnows to environmental androgens and androgen-like compounds apply molecular indicators of exposure to estrogenic and androgenic compounds present in CAFO studies - linkage to chemistry and effects studies
