A growing body of evidence shows that microplastic pollution is ubiquitous in bivalve
mollusks globally and is of particular concern due to its potential impact on human health …

Plastic fragments< 5 mm, known as microplastics (MPs), are ubiquitously present in the
marine environment. Research on MPs pollution has gradually shifted from field …

Microplastics (wasted plastic particles< 5 mm in diameter) are ubiquitously distributed in the
marine environment. Filter-feeding and low trophic level bivalves are vulnerable to …

Microplastics in bivalves have caused widespread concern due to their potential health risk
to humans. In this study, microplastics in the digestive systems of four locally cultured bivalve …

Microplastic contamination is an emerging global threat for various marine organisms.
Marine invertebrates such as bivalve mollusks are more susceptible to the widespread …

Bivalves play important roles in the ecosystem. However, bivalve populations have suffered
a global decline in recent decades. This decline has caused public concern, because …

Microplastics, plastic particles and fragments smaller than 5 mm, are ubiquitous in the
marine environment. Ingestion and accumulation of microplastics have previously been …

The ubiquity and high bioavailability of microplastics have an unknown risk on the marine
environment. Biomonitoring should be used to investigate biotic impacts of microplastic …

Microplastics are abundant and widespread in the marine environment. They are a
contaminant of global environmental and economic concern. Due to their small size a wide …

Microplastics are an emerging contaminant of high environmental concern due to their
widespread distribution and availability to aquatic organisms. Filter-feeding organisms like …
