An endocrine disrupting chemical (EDC) is a synthetic chemical that either mimics or blocks hormones and disrupts the body's normal functions when absorbed into the body.

The researchers treated solutions containing the EDCs nonlyphenol (NP), bisphenol A (BPA) and triclosan (TCS) with an enzyme preparation from the white rot fungus Coriolopsis polyzona.
