The test method might be adaptable to other species than those mentioned above provided that the other species undergo a validation equal to the one accomplished for Japanese medaka, the three-spined stickleback and zebrafish, that the control fish are sexually differentiated at the end of the test, that VTG levels are sufficiently high to detect significant chemical-related variations, and that sensitivity of the test system is established using endocrine active reference chemicals ((anti)-oestrogens, (anti)-androgens, aromatase inhibitors etc).
