Fate and effects of microplastic particles in a periphyton-grazer system

Kristin Schirmer, Ahmed Tlili, Renata Behra

In the aquatic environment, microplastic particles (MP) can accumulate in microbial communities that cover submerged substrata, i.e. in periphyton. Despite periphyton being the essential food source for grazers in the benthic zones, MP transfer from periph ...
