Abstract
⺠Neuroactive chemicals in effluent are potentially phytochemicals in wood. ⺠Extracts of hardwoods bound to receptors in the neuroendocrine reproductive axis. ⺠Extracts altered activities of key enzymes in the neuroendocrine reproductive axis. ⺠Butternut wood extracts and juglone are important leads as reproductive inhibitors. ⺠These neuroendocrine data are also of pharmacological importance.
