The tested chemicals are organochlorine insecticides (DDT and its metabolites, methoxychlor, aldrin, dieldrin, chlordecone, lindane, trichlorobenzene), estrogenic insecticides (endosulfan, toxaphene, nonachlor), herbicides (alachlor and atrazine), fungicides (benomyl and vinclozolin), industrial chemicals (nonylphenol, bisphenol A, diphenylphtalate), antioxidants (butylated hydroxyanisol) and some phytoestrogens.

CPA caused effects consistent with its mixed AR antagonist/progesterone receptor agonist activity: it decreased ASG weights, caused hormonal alterations (increased T and E2; decreased FSH), and caused spermatid retention.
