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.

Among personal care products, quaternium-15 is prominently featured as a preservative in items such shampoos, soaps, shaving and cosmetics. The widespread use of these products people's daily routines contributes to release into aquatic ecosystems. In this context, the primary aim study was assess physiological cellular responses digestive gland gills Mytilus galloprovincialis exposure. Cell viability ability cells regulate their volume were evaluated. Additionally, expression genes involved oxidative stress response assessed further substantiate compound's harmful effects. Results indicated significant decrease both RVD (regulatory decrease) capacity when exposed hypotonic solution. Furthermore, impairment cell function corroborated by modulation stress-related gene expression, including SOD, Cat, well Hsp70 CYP4Y1. Similar alterations observed gills, reflecting impaired functionality vital organ well. summary, outcomes provide conclusive evidence toxicity quaternium-15.

Abstract In recent years, the presence of pharmaceuticals and microplastics (MPs) in aquatic ecosystems has raised concerns about their environmental impact. This study explores combined effects caffeine, a common pharmaceutical pollutant, MPs on marine mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis . Caffeine, at concentrations 20.0 μg L −1 , (1 mg 35–50 μm size range), was used to mimic real‐world exposure scenarios. Two hundred M. specimens were divided into four groups: MPs, Mix (caffeine + MPs), Control. After two‐week acclimation period, mollusks subjected these pollutants oxygen‐aerated aquariums under controlled conditions for 14 days. Histopathological assessments performed evaluate gill morphology. Cellular volume regulation digestive gland cell viability also analyzed. Exposure caffeine induced significant morphological changes gills, including cilia loss, ciliary disk damage, cellular alterations. The chitinous rod supporting filaments suffered potentially due MP interactions, leading hemocyte infiltration filament integrity compromise. Hemocytic aggregation suggested an inflammatory response caffeine. addition, cells revealed potential damage membranes function, with impaired regulation, particularly group, raising nutrient metabolism disruption organ function These findings underscore vulnerability emphasize need monitoring mitigation efforts. Research Highlights synergy warrants investigation. could affect morphology Caffeine‐exposed had lower than control group NR retention test. mix‐exposed struggled recover volume.

Improper disposal of household and industrial waste into water bodies has transformed them de facto dumping grounds. Plastic debris, weathered on beaches degrades micro-particles releases chemical additives that enter the water. Microplastic contamination is documented globally in both marine freshwater environments, posing a significant threat to aquatic ecosystems. The small size these particles makes susceptible ingestion by low trophic fauna, trend expected escalate. Ingestion leads adverse effects like intestinal blockages, alterations lipid metabolism, histopathological changes intestine, contributing extinction vulnerable species disrupting ecosystem balance. Notably, microplastics (MPs) can act as carriers for pathogens, potentially causing impaired reproductive activity, decreased immunity, cancer various organisms. Studies have identified seven principal sources MPs, including synthetic textiles (35%) tire abrasion (28%), highlighting human contribution this pollution. This review covers aspects microplastic pollution, sources, extraction methods, its profound impact Additionally, it explores preventive measures, aiming guide researchers selecting techniques inspiring further investigation far-reaching impacts fostering effective solutions environmental challenge.
