Impacts of dietary exposure to different sized polystyrene microplastics alone and with sorbed benzo[a]pyrene on biomarkers and whole organism responses in mussels Mytilus galloprovincialis

Due to their hydrophobicity and relatively large surface area, microplastics (MPs) can act as carriers of hydrophobic pollutants in the ocean may facilitate transfer organisms. This study examined effects dietary exposure polystyrene MPs 0.5 4.5 μm alone with sorbed benzo[a]pyrene (BaP) on mussels Mytilus galloprovincialis order elucidate MP size presence BaP organism. were provided daily, mixed algae, during 26 days at equivalent mass (0.058 mg/L), corresponding 1000 particles/mL for 7.44 × 105 MPs. Effects determined early cellular biomarkers hemocytes, structure cell type composition digestive tubules (DTs), histopathology whole organism responses (condition index (CI), clearance rate (CR), food absorption efficiency (AE), respiration (RR) scope growth (SFG)). concentrations increased time, particular when smaller Large abundant lumen stomach DTs, but also occasionally found within epithelial cells. all treatments time. more toxic than according hemocyte viability catalase activity quantitative DT epithelium. Higher toxicity small compared larger ones was recorded DNA damage DTs. At tissue level a slight increase prevalence inflammatory occurred exposed groups. compensatory effect observed across day 26, resulting SFG BaP. could be related an energy need deal stress biomarkers.
