Abstract | Di (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP), di-ethyl phthalate (DEP) and di-isononyl phthalate (DINP) are all endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) for organisms. However, little research has been done on the effects of long-term EDC exposure. The present study found that the zebrafish barely grew during the 7 months of DINP exposure. The fecundity rate (%) of female spawning was lower in the DEHP treatment by 4 months compared to other exposure groups. Zebrafish treated with 12.5–25.0 ppm of DEP for 4 months presented no spawning. Gonadal-somatic index (GSI) levels significantly decreased, and there were more oocytes in the atresia and peri-nucleus stage compared to the control group. In addition, the hatching rate of embryos were 71.02%, 56.92%, and 21.70% for females treated with DINP, DEHP and DEP, respectively. There were also abnormal craniofacial chondrogenesis development on 72 hpf embryos upon females treated with the three EDCs. In conclusion, long term exposure of DEHP, DINP, and DEP did not only affect the reproductive capacity of female zebrafish, but the 3 plasticizers also influence craniofacial cartilage development of its offspring. |
