摘要
Weathered plastic litter is recognized as hazardous secondary microplastics(MPs) in the coastal and marine ecosystems, which are of high concern due to their greater impact on the environment. The present study aims to elucidate the impacts of environmentally weathered polyethylene (wPE) MPs on ingestion, growth and enzymatic responses in Penaeus vannamei. The Penaeus vannamei was chronically exposed to five varying concentration (0.1 mg-0.5 mg) of wPE particles in the size range between 43 and 32 μm for a period of 25days, followed by 5days depuration. At the end of exposure, a considerable number of wPE particles were observed from <2 to 14 per individual organism. However, around 60% of the wPE particles were removed after the depuration phase. The toxic exposure on P. vannamei resulted in significant changes in the enzymatic and growth responses with increasing concentration and duration. In addition, growth assessment confirmed that wPE exposure inhibited the growth of organism, and the effect was particularly evident at increasing concentrations and prolonged exposure. Also observed an elevated levels of lipid peroxidation, glutathione-S-transferases, whereas lower levels of reduced-glutathione and catalase at all exposed concentrations. This study confirmed that the ingestion of wPE was completely influenced by exposure duration, rather than the concentrations of administered. The present biomarker assay might act as an appropriate oxidative stress index for wPE toxicity. Findings of this study is useful in providing the basic biological information for environmental risk assessments of MPs, which are of high concern due to the rising input of microplastics into the environment.
