In recent years, endocrine disruptors have gained worldwide
attention of the toxicology researchers and the medical
practitioners as they cause potential health hazards. Among
endocrine disruptors, xenoestrogens are the most important for
studies, since a wide array of such agents are there in our
surroundings due to modern lifestyle and increased environmental
pollution. Most of the reports on xenoestrogen-associated health
problems were based on their interference with hormonal systems.
Apart from this, environmental estrogens may also pose the problems
due to another mode of toxicity; that is, Genotoxicity. It is
well-known that genotoxic agents may not only impact the
individuals directly exposed, but also pass on to the next
generations. The present work deals with the assessment of in vivo
genotoxicity of certain xenoestrogens and the genoprotective effect
of L-ascorbic acid, a potent natural antioxidant. This book
provides an overview of the importance of Genetic Toxicology,
genoprotective studies, adverse effects of xenoestrogens on
wildlife & humans and in vivo cytogenetic methodologies.
