Abstract:
Endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) are xenobiotics that disrupt the endocrine system in humans at ecologically significant concentrations. Various substances are exposed to human health via routes including food, water, air and skin that result in disastrous maladies at low doses as well. Therefore EDCs need a meticulous strategy of analysis for dependable and consistent monitoring in humans. The management and risk assessment necessitate advancements in the detection methodologies of EDCs. Hyphenated MS-based chromatograph and other validated laboratory analysis methods are widely available and employed. Besides, in vitro bioassay techniques and biosensors are also used to conduct accurate toxicological tests. This article provides a revision of various bioanalytical detection methods and technologies for the clinical estimation of EDCs.
