Introduction: There are three synthetic hormones approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (U.S. FDA) for growth promotion in cattle and sheep raised for meat production: the estrogenic compound zeranol, the anabolic steroid trenbolone acetate (TBA), and the progestin melengestrol acetate (MGA). The FDA approves and regulates the use of hormone implants, establishing tolerance levels (m...

Introduction: Micro pollutants have become one of the most important environmental concerns around the world. These natural and synthetic compounds have been called Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals (EDCs) due to their interfere with the normal function of the endocrine system in humans and animals. They include natural and synthetic hormones and their metabolites, surfactant, insecticide, as well...

Background: The use of bioidentical hormones, including progesterone, estradiol, and estriol, in hormone replacement therapy (HRT) has sparked intense debate. Of special concern is their relative safety compared with traditional synthetic and animal-derived versions, such as conjugated equine estrogens (CEE), medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA), and other synthetic progestins. Proponents for bioi...

Between 1995 and 2018, the production of fish fishery products using feed increased from 12 to 54.3 million tons. In cultivation such in many countries, hormones are widely used as growth stimulants increase efficiency conversion for purpose sex reversal, well artificial reproduction. Hormones, especially their synthetic forms, poorly metabolized marine organisms, which leads accumulation food ...

Synthetic hormones and bioactive substances (vitamins, pigments and isoflavons) which have been used in the feed industry are accumulated in milk, meat and eggs. It is suspected that these are responsible for a number of side-effects such as carcinogenesis, liver and kidney damage, allergies in consumers. Furthermore the synthetic hormones, vitamins, pigments are less active than those extracte...
