Resumo(s)
Human exposure to endocrine-disrupting chemicals, particularly at low doses, is ubiquitous, persistent, and occurs in complex mixtures with associated health effects that cannot be predicted when analyzing single compounds independently. Concomitant exposure to these compounds, particularly in critical windows of exposure, may therefore result in hazardous health effects in the exposed individuals and in the offspring, potentially associated with a complex ‘body burden’ of different origins. For the past decades, several epidemiological studies have been performed in an effort to develop biomarkers of effect with the ability to evaluate and potentially predict the risk of disease.
