Among microplastics, 95.6% of this group of contaminants in marine environments are represented by synthetic fibers, and their presence is detected in several organisms. The ubiquity of microplastics in ecosystems has been linked to adverse effects at different levels of biological organization. Furthermore, fibers have the ability to interact and adsorb emerging contaminants present in e…
Synthetic fibers comprise the most significant fraction of microplastics polluting our oceans, posing an alarming threat to marine life. Their significant loads in urban wastewater endanger local species and ecosystems but also indicate that synthetic fibers can interact with other harmful contaminants like antibiotics, amplifying the risk to marine organisms. This project will advance ou…
