Summary
This study demonstrated that polystyrene nanobeads enhance the genotoxicity of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in fish cell lines by concentrating contaminants at cell surfaces. The synergistic effect was greater than PAH exposure alone, suggesting that plastic nanoparticles act as vectors amplifying contaminant bioavailability.
