BACKGROUND:  Endocrine disruptors include plasticizers, pesticides, detergents and pharmaceuticals.  Turbot and other flatfish are used to characterize the presence of chemicals in the marine environment.  Unfortunately, there are relatively few genes of turbot and other flatfish in GenBank, which limits the use of molecular tools such as microarrays and qRT-PCR to study disruption of endocrine responses in sentinel fish captured by regulatory agencies.&amp;#xd;&amp;#xa;OBJECTIVES:  A multi-gene cross species microarray was fabricated as a diagnostic tool to screen the effects of environmental chemicals in fish, for which there is minimal genomic information.  The array included genes that are involved in the actions of adrenal and sex steroids, thyroid...
