Localisation of GO in adult zebrafish intestine. Micrographs of histological sections of A) unexposed adult zebrafish at 21 days showing normal intestine histology and remnants of brine shrimp capsules in the lumen; B) adult zebrafish exposed to 2 mg/L of GO for 21 days; C) adult zebrafish exposed to 2 mg/L of GO + WAF for 21 days; D) adult zebrafish exposed to 2 mg/L of GO-B(a)P for 21 days. Fish exposed to treatments containing GO showed abundant putative GO platelets in the lumen of the intestine (arrows). E–F) TEM micrographs showing the apical zone of the enterocytes of adult zebrafish after 21 days of exposure to 2 mg/L GO. The presence of GO platelets (arrows) was detected in the digestive lumen, but not inside enterocytes. Microvilli (mv), mitochondria (mc). Scale bars: A–D) 100 μm, E) 0.5 μm and F) 2 μm. |
