ClearPotentiation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon uptake in zebrafish embryos by nanoplastics
Nanoplastics present in the environment were found to enhance the uptake of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in zebrafish embryos, suggesting that plastic particles can act as a "Trojan horse" that increases exposure to other toxic pollutants. This combined toxicity effect raises important concerns about the true health risks of microplastic contamination.
Correction: Potentiation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon uptake in zebrafish embryos by nanoplastics
This is a published correction to a study on nanoplastics potentiating the uptake of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in zebrafish embryos. The correction updates details in the original paper rather than presenting new findings.
