Abstract
Impacts of oil exposure on fertility potential of affected organisms can allow us to answer questions regarding serious reproductive impairment. Several reproductive hormones were used to establish exposure level impacts on targeted fish species. Enzyme linked immunoassays were performed on blood serum samples-concentrations of hormones and are reported as pg/mL of serum.
Purpose
Determine impact of the DWH event on fish fertility.
