Screening for the influence of endocrine disruptors on the male and female thyroid gland
Endocrine disruptors (EDs) are a class of chemicals used to produce materials commonly found in everyday life, such as some plastics, tin cans, electrical and household appliances, cosmetics, pesticides, etc. ED s are, however, not without danger: these molecules interfere with the endocrine system, disrupting the physiological production and the target effects of hormones .
