The Toxic Effects of Tetrachlorobisphenol A in Saccharomyces cerevisiae Cells via Metabolic Interference

Abstract Tetrachlorobisphenol A (TCBPA) is a common flame retardant detected in different environments. However, its toxic effects on animals and humans are not fully understood. Here, the differential intracellular metabolites and associated gene expression were used to clarify the metabolic interf...
