Background: Polybrominated Biphenyls (PBBs) and Polybrominated Diphenyl Ethers (PBDEs) are semi-permanent Halogenated compounds that are mainly used in flame retardant. These contaminants as endocrinedisrupting associated with dysfunction of immune, endocrine and nervous systems. Influence various physiological processes such as menarche, birth weight, fetus growth and development, head circumf...

Chemical contamination of aquatic environments to EDCs has become a major focus of environmental toxicology research. The exposure of fishes to estrogenic EDCs in aquatic environments is most frequently assessed by analyzing Vitellogenin (Vg) (the egg yolk precursor protein) expression. Therefore, characterization of Vg gene is of high priority for EDCs bio-monitoring. So, we prepared liver tis...
