Abstract
Alkylphenol ethoxylates have been used extensively as nonionic surfactants in industrial processing, household and institutional cleaning products. They are apparently degraded microbially to alkylphenol. Alkylphenol has been shown to possess estrogenic properties and, therefore, is an 'endocrine disrupter' that has significantly influence on sexual and reproductive development. (omitted)
