Abstract
⺠C60 fullerenes (C60) and fluoranthene induce DNA breaks in haemocytes of mussels. ⺠Combination of C60 and fluoranthene enhance DNA breaks and glutathione level. ⺠No DNA adducts formation after exposure to C60 and fluoranthene in mussel tissues. ⺠C60 alone or with fluoranthene impact physiology and histology of mussel tissues. ⺠C60 accumulates in organs, more in digestive gland; more without fluoranthene.
