Journal ArticleDOI

Accumulation and Embryotoxicity of Polystyrene Nanoparticles at Early Stage of Development of Sea Urchin Embryos Paracentrotus lividus

TL;DR: In line with the results obtained with the same PS NPs in several human cell lines, also in sea urchin embryos, differences in surface charges and aggregation in seawater strongly affect their embryotoxicity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Oxidative stress in ecotoxicology: from the analysis of individual antioxidants to a more integrated approach

TL;DR: An integrate approach will be discussed for investigations on oxidative stress in xenobiotic toxicity, which has a greater predictive value on the health condition of the organisms and allows to discriminate the different role of specific ROS in oxidative stress syndrome.
Journal ArticleDOI

Long-term toxicity of surface-charged polystyrene nanoplastics to marine planktonic species Dunaliella tertiolecta and Artemia franciscana.

TL;DR: A first insight into long-term toxicity of nanoplastics to marine plankton is provided, underlining the role of the surface chemistry in determining the behaviour and effects of PS NPs, in terms of adsorption, growth inhibition, accumulation, gene modulation and mortality.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evidence for immunomodulation and apoptotic processes induced by cationic polystyrene nanoparticles in the hemocytes of the marine bivalve Mytilus.

TL;DR: The results demonstrate that in marine invertebrates the immune function can represent a significant target for PS-NPs, and in Mytilus hemocytes, PS-NH2 NPs can act through mechanisms similar to those observed in mammalian cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nano-sized polystyrene affects feeding, behavior and physiology of brine shrimp Artemia franciscana larvae

TL;DR: The general observed accumulation of PS NPs within the gut during the 48h of exposure indicates a continuous bioavailability of nano-sized PS for planktonic species as well as a potential transfer along the trophic web.
