Abstract
⺠Ecotoxicological screening of ozonation as an effluent treatment step. ⺠Ozonation significantly decreased estrogen and testosterone binding activity of effluent in enzyme immunoassays. ⺠No decrease in reproductive fitness of fish in a 21-day screening assay of effluent before and after ozonation. ⺠No detrimental effects of effluent in aquatic ecotoxicity microbioassays and the fish screening assay before and after ozonation.
