Description

• General description: Nonylphenol is a toxic xenobiotic compound classified as an endocrine disrupter capable of interfering with the hormonal system of numerous organisms[1]. Nonylphenol has been reported as antiandrogen by using a yeast detection system[2]. Molecular mechanism for the antiandrogenic action of nonylphenol has been reported[2].
• Application: Chlorination of Emerging Contaminants for Application in Potable Wastewater Reuse: Disinfection Byproduct Formation, Estrogen Activity, and Cytotoxicity.: Investigates the formation of disinfection byproducts, estrogen activity, and cytotoxicity during chlorination of nonylphenol in potable wastewater reuse applications, offering insights into water treatment safety protocols (Cochran et al., 2024).Triple-Mode Sensor Coupled by Photoelectrochemical, Electrochromic, and Spectral Signals for Sensitive Visualized Detection of Nonylphenol.: Describes the development of a sensitive triple-mode sensor for detecting nonylphenol, integrating photoelectrochemical, electrochromic, and spectral signals, which could be instrumental in environmental monitoring and industrial process controls (Cao et al., 2023).
