## Abstract Nonylphenol ethoxylates (NPEOs) were evaluated in the laboratory for potential effects on the reproductive physiology and fecundity of fathead minnows (__Pimephales promelas__). Groups of three adult male and three female fathead minnows were exposed in a continuous flowβthrough system
Two populations of fathead minnows (F 1 , offspring of survivors of an acute fluoranthene exposure; N 1 , naive hatchery fish born in outdoor ponds) were concurrently exposed to approximately 850 g/L of copper for 132 h. During the exposure, 49% of the F 1 and 85% of the N 1 minnows died. A curled o
