“…The 20-HE hormone is an ecdysteroid hormone, secreted by the Y-organ (Mykles, 2011), which initiates many physiological processes, such as ovarian maturation, growth, molting, and reproduction in crustaceans (LeBlanc, 2007). A few studies have been designed to investigate the effects of exposure to environmental EDCs on the endocrine system of crustaceans through ecdysteroid concentration, or to investigate the endocrine system of invertebrates (Oberdörster et al, 1999;Palma et al, 2009;Soetaert et al, 2007), but no studies have used the 20-HE concentration to investigate the effects of chlordecone.…”

“…Pesticides are characterized by their high toxicity to aquatic organisms (Pereira & Goncalves, 2007). Currently, there is growing interest in determining the effects that endocrine disruptors may have on these compounds in aquatic organisms, which can enter aquatic ecosystems from crop sprayings runoff in agricultural lands (Mazurová et al, 2008;Palma et al, 2009;Yang et al, 2010).…”

“…Pesticides are usually non target-specific, and therefore may cause harm to non-target species; many are quite persistent for long periods in the environment (Palma et al, 2009). Pesticides are characterized by their high toxicity to aquatic organisms (Pereira & Goncalves, 2007).…”

“…In a laboratory study, Hayes et al (2002bHayes et al ( , 2002c) also reported that this herbicide was related to the feminization of Rana pipiens. Palma et al (2009) found that atrazine concentrations affected the reproduction of Daphnia magna.…”
