Antioxidant system biomarkers of freshwater mussel (Unio tigridis) respond to nanoparticle (Al(2)O(3), CuO, TiO(2)) exposures

CONCLUSION: This study representing the first record on the antioxidant system response of U. tigridis toward NP exposures suggests that NP toxicity should be investigated thoroughly, especially in the bioindicator organisms and some regulations must be done on t6hier usage as they NPs may be the potential pollutants of the future.PMID:33781138 | DOI:10.1080/1354750X.2021.1909655
