Copper oxide nanoparticles induce oxidative stress mediated apoptosis in carp (Cyprinus carpio) larva

Negative effects of metal oxide nanoparticles on the aquatic organisms and ecosystems have recently much considered. Copper oxide nanoparticles are widely used in various industrial, and this problem cause concerns for aquatic organisms. This study aimed to determine the acute toxicity and the effects of copper oxide nanoparticles (CuO NPs) on tissue histology, bioaccumulation, antioxidant enzymes activity and the expression of apoptosis genes...
