Progress of Studies on Ecological Effects of Ecoestrogen

Abstract

Abstract: There are currently 80 types of ecoestrogen proved,which can cause reproductive malfunction,cancer,malformation and abnormal behavior of animals and human beings while some ecoestrogen can interfere with more than one endocrine system or change the sex ratio and life cycle of certain animalsSome trace ecoestrogen can be accumulated to a concentration level hundreds of million times higher than that in the environmentThe injury of ecoestrogen could be different according to differences of genetics,time and geologyCompared with synthetic ecoestrogen,phytoestrogen can reduce the risk of reproductive cancers.

Key words: juvenile Apostichopus japonicus, light intensity, compound Chinese medicine preparation, microbial preparation, growth, digestive enzyme activity.
