Repeated deposition of copper oxide nanoparticles (CuO-NPs) into aquatic systems makes them a global threat since the NPs accumulate in various organs of the fish particularly skeletal muscle. In the present study, adult zebrafish were exposed to different concentrations of CuO-NPs (1 and 3 mg/L) for a period of 30 days. The status of functional markers (acetylcholinesterase, creatine kinase-MB, and lactate dehydrogenase) and oxidative stress markers (oxidants and antioxidants) were analyzed.
