Effects of Nanoparticles on Mussel Health by Carlos Villasana is a document available to read on EtoBox.
1) The study investigated the impacts of gold nanoparticles decorated with zinc oxide (Au-ZnO NPs) and an organophosphate compound (Diethyl (3-cyano-1-hydroxy-1-phenyl-2-methylpropyl) phosphate (PC)) on the Mediterranean mussel (Mytilus galloprovincialis). 2) The mussels were exposed to both compounds individually and as a mixture, and their effects on metal accumulation, filtration capacity, respiration rate, and oxidative stress biomarkers were measured. 3) Exposure to Au-ZnO NPs increased metal levels l
