Abstract |
Pseudemys Compounds assayed alone and resulting in significant sex reversal in the red-eared slider turtle (Trachemys scripta elegans) were trans-nonachlor, aroclor 1242, p,p-DDE and chlordane. When administered with estradiol, only chlordane caused sex reversal at significant levels. However, when applied together, all 8 compounds assayed (the above plus toxaphene , dieldrin, p'p-DDD and cis-nonachlor), assayed resulted in significant sex reversal.
