Nanoplastics (NPs) pose a significant environmental threat due to their small sizes, widespread distribution, and bioavailability, enabling interactions with marine organisms from pelagic benthic species. In this study, the effects of 10 days exposure waterborne poly(methyl)methacrylate (PMMA) NPs were evaluated in crab Carcinus maenas by assessing behavioral biochemical endpoints (in gills, hepatopancreas, muscle, hemolymph). Behavioral assessments using an open field test revealed that PMMA resulted increase distance walked (from 73.662 ± 17.137 cm control 248.560 25.462 highest concentration) random movement patterns. Muscle acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity decreased 10.83 0.73 6.75 0.45 nmol/min/mg protein concentration increase, which, combined responses, suggests neurological incapacities. gills defense detoxification mechanisms activated, superoxide dismutase (SOD) (at 20 µg/L 80 hepatopancreas) glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) (all concentrations 320 hepatopancreas).
