✦ Synopsis

Min et al. [1996]

It is well established that girls, on average, weigh less than boys at birth. And the reasons for suggesting that men who are exposed to lead sire an excess of daughters are as follows:

## Abstract Perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS) is an organic contaminant ubiquitous in the environment, wildlife, and humans. Few studies have assessed its chronic toxicity on aquatic organisms. The present study defined the effects of long‐term exposure to PFOS on zebrafish development and reprod
