wastewater treatment effluent alters nucleotide excision repair in zebrafish (danio rerio). | wastewater treatment effluent is a complex mixture of anthropogenic pollutants including estrogenic substances and chemicals, such as polyaromatic hydrocarbons, that cause bulky dna adducts. significant research focuses on reproductive effects of aquatic estrogens from wastewater treatment plants. however, other studies suggest genotoxic and immunological effects occur at lower concentrations of wastewater treatment effluent than reproductive endpoints. recently, effects of estrogen on dna repai ... | 2009 | 19467346 |
