Changes in hematological parameters and plasma components of olive flounder, Paralichthys olivaceus exposed to acute microplastics

AI summary Read the abstract

Researchers exposed juvenile olive flounder to polyethylene microplastics at concentrations up to 2,500 mg/L for 96 hours and observed significant reductions in blood glucose, cholesterol, calcium, and liver enzyme AST without causing mortality. These findings indicate that acute microplastic exposure induces measurable blood physiological disruptions in fish even at sublethal doses.

Toxicity Impact of Polyethylene Microplastics on Biochemical Parameters and Oxidative Stress in Benni Fish (Barbus sharpeyi)

AI summary Read the abstract

Benni fish exposed to increasing concentrations of polyethylene microplastics showed significant liver enzyme disruption, elevated cholesterol and triglycerides, and clear signs of oxidative damage in their cells. These dose-dependent biochemical changes suggest that microplastic exposure causes systemic physiological stress in fish, raising concerns about the health of species humans consume.
