Popis: Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are promising new materials that have been intensively studied and possibly applied to various environmental remediation. However, little is known about the fate and risk of MOFs to living organisms in the water environment. Here, the toxic effects of ZIF-8 nanoparticles (NPs) on benthic organisms were confirmed by sub-chronic toxicity experiments (7 and 14 days) using Corbicula fluminea as the model organism. With exposure doses ranging from 0 to 50 mg/L, ZIF-8 NPs induced oxidative stress behaviors similar to the hormesis effect in the tissues of C. fluminea. The oxidative stress induced by ZIF-8 NPs and the released Zn
