Impacts of polyethylene microplastics on the microalga, Spirulina (Arthrospira platensis).

TL;DR: In this paper , a 20-day period of microplastic exposure to Spirulina (Arthrospira platensis) was studied, and it was found that microplastics concentrations above 10 mg L-1 resulted in oxidative stress and the intracellular production of proline.

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.
