TLDR
Compared with non-contact shading effect, interactions between microplastic and microalage such as adsorption and aggregation were more reasonable explanations for toxic effects of microplastics on marine microalgae.

Photodynamic control of harmful algal blooms by an ultra-efficient and degradable AIEgen-based photosensitizer

TL;DR: TVP-A as mentioned in this paper, a positively charged photosensitizer with aggregation-induced emission (AIE) characteristics, is introduced as a super-efficient, cost-effective, and eco-friendly agent for the governance of harmful algal blooms.

Microplastics reduce the bioaccumulation and oxidative stress damage of triazole fungicides in fish

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors investigated the single and combined effects of polystyrene microplastics (PS-MPs) and the triazole fungicide difenoconazole on zebrafish, and explored the mechanism of this effect.

Accumulation and fragmentation of plastic debris in global environments.

TL;DR: Global plastics production and the accumulation of plastic waste are documented, showing that trends in mega- and macro-plastic accumulation rates are no longer uniformly increasing and that the average size of plastic particles in the environment seems to be decreasing.

The pollution of the marine environment by plastic debris: a review.

TL;DR: The deleterious effects of plastic debris on the marine environment were reviewed by bringing together most of the literature published so far on the topic, and a variety of approaches are urgently required to mitigate the problem.

Accumulation of Microplastic on Shorelines Woldwide: Sources and Sinks

TL;DR: It is shown that microplastic contaminates the shorelines at 18 sites worldwide representing six continents from the poles to the equator, with more material in densely populated areas, but no clear relationship between the abundance of miocroplastics and the mean size-distribution of natural particulates.
