Abstract
Introduction
Endocrine disrupting chemicals and human health
Endocrine disrupting chemicals, are known as ‘‘endocrine disruptors’’ EDs, are defined by the Environmental Protection Agency as ‘‘exogenous agents that interfere with the synthesis, secretion, transport, metabolism, binding action or elimination of natural blood borne hormones that are present in the body and are responsible for homeostasis, reproduction, and developmental processes’’[1,2].
