Polystyrene nanoparticles are widely used in packaging, but their effects on organisms are unclear. Very little was known about how they affect blood cell development until now.

Polystyrene nanoparticles are widely used in consumer products. The researchers found that nanoparticle exposure alters red ...

Polystyrene nanoparticles, widely used in consumer products, can disrupt red blood cell (RBC) development in zebrafish embryos, according to a new study. Using single-cell RNA sequencing and in vivo ...

A study led by Prof. Liu Feng from the Institute of Zoology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has identified a crucial role ...

Nanoplastics in water hindered oxygen transport in zebrafish, underscoring their toxic impact on aquatic health.

The development steps that take one month for a human embryo are gone through by a zebrafish embryo in one day – an enormous time saving for scientists. The splendid colour of the adult fish starts to ...
