Microplastics (MPs <5 mm) are ubiquitous in natural environments, being bioavailable to a core set of aquatic organisms, mainly filter-feeding bivalve molluscs. In addition to being appreciated in cooking, widely distributed and important in the assessment of environmental quality, these organisms have been used as sentinels of MPs contamination. Studies carried out by our research group …
In 2050 there will be more plastic than fish in the oceans, as this is currently the most abundant material among marine litter (between 61 and 87%), besides having slow degradability in marine and coastal environments. The occurrence of plastic polymers can lead to aesthetic, economic, social and biological damages in coastal environments. Microplastics (MPs), of small dimensions (5mm), …
