Abstract
⺠High prevalence of intersex gonads was found in the Urdaibai Biosphere Reserve. ⺠High levels of alkylphenols were measured in fish bile. ⺠VTG protein was detected in the plasma of undifferentiated, male and intersex fish. ⺠Levels of phthalate and organotins measured in sediments are of great concern. ⺠This study provided evidence of EDs presence in the Urdaibai Biosphere Reserve.
