author keywords: crustacean; pollutant; reproduction; steroid; terpenoid
MeSH headings : Animals; Benzhydryl Compounds; Daphnia / drug effects; Daphnia / embryology; Daphnia / growth & development; Dose-Response Relationship, Drug; Ecdysteroids / antagonists & inhibitors; Ecdysterone / pharmacology; Juvenile Hormones / physiology; Molting / drug effects; Phenols / antagonists & inhibitors; Phenols / toxicity; Sex Differentiation / drug effects; Signal Transduction / drug effects; Time; Water Pollutants, Chemical / toxicity
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that bisphenol A is chronically toxic to daphnids, probably through its ability to interfere with ecdysteroid/juvenoid regulated processes, however, effects are elicited at levels that are not likely to pose environmental concern. (via Semantic Scholar)
