Feminizing/demasculinizing effects of polychlorinated biphenyls on the secondary sexual development of Xenopus laevis.

Aquatic toxicology (Amsterdam, Netherlands) - 15 Oct 2007

Abstract excerpt

We have previously demonstrated that polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) have caused phenotypic feminization/demasculinization of gonadal development in Xenopus laevis. Whether PCBs affect secondary sexual development has remained unknown. In this study, X. laevis tadpoles were exposed to Aroclor125...
