Toxicity of the pharmaceuticals finasteride and melengestrol acetate to the amphipod Hyalella azteca

Toxicity of the pharmaceuticals finasteride and melengestrol acetate to the amphipod Hyalella azteca The toxicity of pharmaceuticals finasteride (FIN) and melengestrol acetate (MGA) was assessed in chronic (42 days) sediment tests with the amphipod Hyalella azteca. Two tests were completed for each compound. Survival, growth, reproduction and sex ratio were assessed at the end of each test. 2022-01-24 Environment and Climate Change Canada open-ouvert@tbs-sct.gc.ca Nature and EnvironmentamphipodHyalella aztecasedimentstoxicitypharmaceuticalsfinasterideMelengestrol acetateThe New Substances Assessment and Control Bureau (NSACB)EnvironmentArthropodsToxicologyBioassayAquatic animalsBiologyChemicalsFresh water View ECCC Data Mart (English)HTML https://donnees-data.ec.gc.ca/data/substances/assess/toxicity-of-the-pharmaceuticals-finasteride-and-melengestrol-acetate-to-benthic-invertebrates/toxicity-of-the-pharmaceuticals-finasteride-and-melengestrol-acetate-to-the-amphipod-hyalella-azteca/?lang=en View ECCC Data Mart (French)HTML https://donnees-data.ec.gc.ca/data/substances/assess/toxicity-of-the-pharmaceuticals-finasteride-and-melengestrol-acetate-to-benthic-invertebrates/toxicity-of-the-pharmaceuticals-finasteride-and-melengestrol-acetate-to-the-amphipod-hyalella-azteca/?lang=fr
