Toxic effects and mechanisms of nanoplastics and sulfonamide antibiotics on Scenedesmus obliquus

The prevalence of nanoplastics (NPs) and sulfonamide antibiotics (SAs) in the aquatic environment is potentially harmful to the environment, and these pollutants are often present in the environment in the form of composite ones, thereby introducing more complex effects and hazards to the environment. Therefore, it is crucial to investigate the toxic effects of the individual target pollutants and their mixtures. In this study, we used Scenedesmus obliquus as the test organisms, two types of NPs: polystyrene (PS) and amine-modified (NH
