摘要: Reproductive organs from 55 male and 44 female East Greenland polar bears were examined to investigate the potential negative impact organohalogen pollutants (OHCs). Multiple regressions normalizing for age showed a significant inverse relationship between OHCs testis length baculum weight, respectively, was found in both subadults (dichlorodiphenyl trichloroethanes, dieldrin, chlordanes, hexacyclohexanes, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs)) adults (hexachlorobenzene [HCB]) (all p < 0.05). Baculum bone mineral densities decreased with increasing DDTs, HCB adults, respectively In females, ovary ΣPCB (p = 0.03) ΣCHL 0.01), weight ΣPBDE 0.01) uterine horn 0.02). The study suggests that there is an xenoendocrine on size of Eas...
