Tiny particles of plastic are awash in the oceans—but how are they affecting marine life? When Mark Browne set out to study the plastic waste that litters the oceans, he hadn't planned on doing laundry in the name of science. Browne, an... Katsnelson,Alla - 《Proceedings of the Nationa...
Or is there also a contribution of microplastics to that as it were, especially inhaling them? These EDCs, you do not need a tremendous amount of them to have a really terrible effect on the body. [00:23:01]Jordan Harbinger:You're listening to The Jordan Harbinger Show with our guest ...
Tiny bits of plastic trash could spell big trouble for marine life, starting with the worms, say a team of researchers from Plymouth University and the University of Exeter who report their evidence in a pair of studies in the Cell Press journalCurrent Biologyon December 2. Those marine worms...
Although a statistical relationship with a modest effect size was found between the cause-of-death category and microplastic abundance, it is not yet possible to draw firm conclusions on the potential biological significance of this observation. More research is required to better understand the potent...
Experiment 2: effect of microplastic type and size on protozoa association In this experiment, our objective was to compare the ability of protozoan (oo)cysts to associate with different microplastic types. Two microplastic types, each with two size ranges, were tested: 100 μm and 500 μm mic...
