Abstract
Phenxoy compounds, 2,4-dichlorophenol acetoxyacid (2,4-D) and 2,4-dichlorophenol (DCP), are widely used as a hormonal herbicide and intermediate for pesticide manufacturing, respectively. We have previously reported the potential of these compounds as androgenic endocrine disruptors using in vivo Hershberger assay and in vitro reporter gene assay.(omitted)
