Journal ArticleDOI
Oyster reproduction is affected by exposure to polystyrene microplastics
Rossana Sussarellu,Marc Suquet,Yoann Thomas,Christophe Lambert,Caroline Fabioux,Marie Eve Julie Pernet,Nelly Le Goïc,Virgile Quillien,Christian Mingant,Yanouk Epelboin,Charlotte Corporeau,J. Guyomarch,Johan Robbens,Ika Paul-Pont,Philippe Soudant,Arnaud Huvet +15 more
TL;DR: Evidence is provided that micro-PS cause feeding modifications and reproductive disruption in oysters, with significant impacts on offspring, providing ground-breaking data on microplastic impacts in an invertebrate model, helping to predict ecological impact in marine ecosystems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Occurrence and effects of plastic additives on marine environments and organisms: A review
Ludovic Hermabessiere,Alexandre Dehaut,Ika Paul-Pont,Camille Lacroix,Ronan Jezequel,Philippe Soudant,Guillaume Duflos +6 more
TL;DR: This work identified polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDE), phthalates, nonylphenols (NP), bisphenol A (BPA) and antioxidants as the most common plastic additives found in marine environments and transfer of these plastic additives to marine organisms has been demonstrated both in laboratory and field studies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microplastics in seafood: Benchmark protocol for their extraction and characterization
Alexandre Dehaut,Anne-Laure Cassone,Laura Frère,Ludovic Hermabessiere,Charlotte Himber,Emmanuel Rinnert,Gilles Rivière,Christophe Lambert,Philippe Soudant,Arnaud Huvet,Guillaume Duflos,Ika Paul-Pont +11 more
TL;DR: The protocol using a KOH 10% solution and incubation at 60 °C during a 24 h period led to an efficient digestion of biological tissues with no significant degradation on all tested polymers, except for cellulose acetate.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microplastic contamination in brown shrimp (Crangon crangon, Linnaeus 1758) from coastal waters of the Southern North Sea and Channel area.
Lisa Devriese,Myra D. van der Meulen,Thomas Maes,Karen Bekaert,Ika Paul-Pont,Laura Frère,Johan Robbens,A. Dick Vethaak +7 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that microplastics >20μm are not able to translocate into the tissues, and the microplastic uptake was significantly higher in October compared to March.
Journal ArticleDOI
Exposure of marine mussels Mytilus spp. to polystyrene microplastics: Toxicity and influence on fluoranthene bioaccumulation.
Ika Paul-Pont,Camille Lacroix,Carmen González Fernández,Hélène Hégaret,Christophe Lambert,Nelly Le Goïc,Laura Frère,Anne-Laure Cassone,Rossana Sussarellu,Caroline Fabioux,J. Guyomarch,Marina Albentosa,Arnaud Huvet,Philippe Soudant +13 more
TL;DR: Results suggest that under the experimental conditions of this study micro-PS led to direct toxic effects at tissue, cellular and molecular levels, and modulated fluoranthene kinetics and toxicity in marine mussels.
