Abstract
Endocrine disrupting chemicals are a newly defined category of environmental contaminants that may affect animal and human populations by interfering with normal hormone action. There is substantial concern that these agents could have a range of subtle and long-lasting effects. Because of the sensitivity of the developing central nervous system to low levels of endogenous gonadal hormones during development, the central nervous system may be a target for the action of endocrine disrupting chemicals.
