A toxicity identification evaluation approach to studying estrogenic substances in hog manure and agricultural runoff
Abstract
Spreading liquid manure on agricultural fields is a routine way of disposing of animal manure and optimizing the use of nutrients for crops. Limited studies suggest that these wastes may contain a variety of endocrine-disrupting compounds (EDCs) that may be released into aquatic environments through runoff. The purpose of this study was to apply a toxicity identification and evaluation approach to isolate and identify estrogenic compounds in …
