This study investigated the toxicity of polyethylene microplastics (MPs; <0.02 mm) and CuSO4, alone in combination, on freshwater crayfish Pontastacus leptodactylus. In this study, were exposed to PE-MPs (0.0, 0.5, 1 mg L-1) CuSO4·5H2O for a period 28 days. Next, multi-biomarkers, including biochemical, immunological, oxidative stress indicators analyzed. Results showed that co-exposure CuSO4 resulted increased aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine (ALT), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), decreased alkaline phosphatase (ALP), butyrylcholinesterase (BChE), gamma-glutamyl-transferase (GGT). Triglycerides, cholesterol, glucose, albumin content also increased. Although no significant change was observed lysozyme phenoloxidase activities co-exposed 0.5 L-1 MPs their significantly other experimental groups. Oxidative parameters hepatopancreas indicated superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GPx), malondialdehyde (MDA) levels, but catalase (CAT), glucose 6-phosphate (G6PDH), cellular total antioxidant (TAC). sub-chronic confirmed. The confirmed found higher concentrations led more severe effects. Co-exposure primarily compromised endpoints, showing when both pollutants present concentrations. POX, LYZ, ALP, GGT, LDH, CAT suppressed by MPs. However, synergistic increase measured biomarkers

Unraveling the potential human health risks from used disposable face mask-derived micro/nanoplastics during the COVID-19 pandemic scenario: A critical review

Environment International, Journal Year: 2022, Volume and Issue: 170, P. 107644 - 107644

Published: Nov. 17, 2022

With the global spread of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2), disposable face masks (DFMs) have caused negative environmental impacts. DFMs will release microplastics (MPs) and nanoplastics (NPs) during degradation. However, few studies reveal process MPs/NPs from in natural environment. This review presents current knowledge on abiotic biotic degradation DFMs. Though MPs NPs raised serious concerns about their potentially detrimental effects human health, little attention was paid to impacts health DFM-derived NPs. The potential toxicity mask-derived MPs/NPs, such as gastrointestinal toxicity, pneumotoxicity, neurotoxicity, hepatotoxicity, reproductive transgenerational underlying mechanism be discussed present study. serve carriers toxic chemicals pathogens, leading bioaccumulation adverse biomagnification by food chains. Given experiments are facing ethical issues animal cannot completely characteristics, advanced organoids provide promising models for MP/NP risk assessment. Moreover, in-depth investigations required identify discarded characterize transportation through More importantly, innovative approaches eco-friendly strategies urgently demanded reduce pollution.

Growth, physiological parameters and DNA methylation in Spirodela polyrhiza (L.) Schleid exposed to PET micro-nanoplastic contaminated waters

Plant Physiology and Biochemistry, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 207, P. 108403 - 108403

Published: Jan. 27, 2024

The effects of polyethylene terephthalate micro-nanoplastics (PET-MNPs) were tested on the model freshwater species Spirodela polyrhiza (L.) Schleid., with focus possible particle-induced epigenetic (i.e. alteration DNA methylation status). MNPs (size ∼ 200-300 nm) produced as water dispersions from PET bottles through repeated cycles homogenization and used to prepare N-medium at two environmentally relevant concentrations (∼0.05 g L
