Effects of the antimicrobial contaminant triclocarban, and co-exposure with the androgen 17beta-trenbolone, on reproductive function and ovarian transcriptome of the fathead minnow (Pimephales promelas).
Triclocarban (TCC) is a widely used antimicrobial agent that is routinely detected in surface waters. The present study was designed to examine TCC’s efficacy and mode of action as a reproductive toxicant in fish. Reproductively mature Pimephales promelas were continuously exposed to either 1 or 5 μg TCC/L,  0.5 μg …
