Sorption of PAHs to microplastic and their bioavailability and toxicity to marine copepods under co-exposure conditions
TLDR
Cfree reduction through MP sorption was reflected in a corresponding reduction of lethality and bioaccumulation, with no difference observed between ingestible and non-ingestible MP, which indicates that only free dissolved PAHs are significantly bioavailable to copepods under co-exposure conditions with MP-sorbedPAHs.About:

TL;DR: Several knowledge gaps are stated in this new line of research and it is apparent that degradable microplastics, such as polylactic acid or polybutylene succinate, have a greater affinity for hydrophobic contaminants than conventional synthetic non-degradablemicroplastics according to recent studies.

TL;DR: Model calculations and experimental observations consistently show that polyethylene accumulates more organic contaminants than other plastics such as polypropylene and polyvinyl chloride, and PCBs could transfer from contaminated plastics to streaked shearwater chicks.

TL;DR: It is shown that microplastics are ingested by, and may impact upon, zooplankton, and imply that marine microplastic debris can negatively impact upon zoopLankton function and health.

Ingested plastic transfers hazardous chemicals to fish and induces hepatic stress
TL;DR: It is shown that fish, exposed to a mixture of polyethylene with chemical pollutants sorbed from the marine environment, bioaccumulate these chemical pollutants and suffer liver toxicity and pathology, and that future assessments should consider the complex mixture of the plastic material and their associated chemical pollutants.
