Studies of the effects of microplastics on aquatic organisms: What do we know and where should we focus our efforts in the future?

TL;DR: A critical perspective on published studies of MP ingestion by aquatic biota is provided and there are significant mismatches between the types of MP most commonly found in the environment or reported in field studies and those used in laboratory experiments.
Journal ArticleDOI

Single and combined effects of microplastics and pyrene on juveniles (0+ group) of the common goby Pomatoschistus microps (Teleostei, Gobiidae)

TL;DR: Overall, results show that microplastics modulate either the bioavailability or biotransformation of pyrene, and simultaneous exposure to microplastic and pyrene decrease the energy available through the aerobic pathway of energy production; andmicroplastics inhibit AChE activity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Does the presence of microplastics influence the acute toxicity of chromium(VI) to early juveniles of the common goby (Pomatoschistus microps)? A study with juveniles from two wild estuarine populations

TL;DR: The results of this study indicate toxicological interactions between MP and Cr(VI) highlighting the importance of further investigating the combined effects of MP and other common contaminants.
Journal ArticleDOI

Oxidative stress and genotoxic effects in gill and kidney of Anguilla anguilla L. exposed to chromium with or without pre-exposure to β-naphthoflavone

TL;DR: In gill, a GSH decrease was observed along with loss of DNA integrity at all exposure conditions except at the lowest Cr concentration, showing a crucial role of GSH over genotoxicity, while sporadic induction of antioxidant enzymes was not effective in the protection against genot toxicity.
