Recovery of the Reproductive Capability Following Exposure to 4-tert-Octylphenol in the Neotropical Cichlid Fish Cichlasoma dimerus

Here, we analyzed the recovery of the reproductive capability in male Cichlasoma dimerus after exposure to sublethal concentrations of 4-tert-octylphenol (OP), a demonstrated estrogenic chemical. Adult fish were exposed to 0, 30, 150 and 300 μg/L OP during 60 days and subsequently transferred to OP-...
