Abstract
This study investigates the combined toxicity of microplastics (MPs) and florfenicol (FLO) on biotransformation enzymes and oxidative stress biomarkers in the liver and kidney of yellowfin seabream (Acanthopagrus latus). Fish were fed 15 mg kg-1 of FLO and 100 or 500 mg kg-1 of MPs for 10 days. Biomarkers, including ethoxyresorufin-O-deethylase, glutathione-S-transferase, superoxide dismutase, catalase, glutathione peroxidase, malondialdehyde (MDA), and protein carbonylation (PC), were measured in both organs at 1, 7, and 14 days post-exposure. FLO levels peaked on day 1 and declined after that. Liver biomarkers were more responsive to pollutants, with the combined exposure of FLO and MPs leading to more pronounced toxicity. By day 14, only the FLO group showed a return to baseline biomarker levels, while MDA and PC levels remained elevated in MPs and co-exposed groups. These findings highlight the importance of considering the interactive effects of multiple pollutants in addressing marine environmental stressors.
期刊介绍:
The Science of the Total Environment is an international journal dedicated to scientific research on the environment and its interaction with humanity. It covers a wide range of disciplines and seeks to publish innovative, hypothesis-driven, and impactful research that explores the entire environment, including the atmosphere, lithosphere, hydrosphere, biosphere, and anthroposphere.
The journal's updated Aims & Scope emphasizes the importance of interdisciplinary environmental research with broad impact. Priority is given to studies that advance fundamental understanding and explore the interconnectedness of multiple environmental spheres. Field studies are preferred, while laboratory experiments must demonstrate significant methodological advancements or mechanistic insights with direct relevance to the environment.
