Estrogens and Progestogens in Wastewater, Sludge, Sediments, and Soil
Estrogens and progestogens are two classes of female steroidal hormones whose presence in the environment has been associated with the appearance of... -
Biosensors for toxic metals, polychlorinated biphenyls, biological oxygen demand, endocrine disruptors, hormones, dioxin, phenolic and organophosphorus compounds: a review
The growing pollution by hazardous agents is a major concern due to pollutant transfer to water, air, soil and food. Since actual analytical methods...

Exposure to mixed chemicals elevated triiodothyronine (T3) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) levels: epidemiology and in silico toxicogenomic involvement
There is a dearth of evidence on the effects of a mixture of numerous different types of chemicals on hormone functions. We hypothesized that...

The interference between effects of PFAS exposure on thyroid hormone disorders and cholesterol levels: an NHANES analysis
Studies have documented that per- and polyfluoroalkyl substance (PFAS) exposures are associated with thyroid hormones (TH) and lipid levels. This...
