Effets de substances androgéniques et anti-androgéniques sur le gastéropodes dulçaquicole Lymnaea stagnalis

Abstract

Knowledge on the impacts of endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) on gastropods is scarce and their mechanisms of action are still poorly understood. In this study, effects of 3 androgens (tributyltin, testosterone and fenitrothion), 2 anti-androgens (cyproterone acetate and vinclozolin) and 1 estrogen (chlordecone) on growth and reproduction were investigated in the hermaphrodite gastropod Lymnaea stagnalis
