The Brine Shrimp Artemia: Adapted to Critical Life Conditions [PDF]

Frontiers in Physiology, 2012
The brine shrimp Artemia is a micro-crustacean, well adapted to the harsh conditions that severely hypersaline environments impose on survival and reproduction. Adaptation to these conditions has taken place at different functional levels or domains, from the individual (molecular-cellular-physiological) to the population level.

Synergistic Impacts of Co‐Exposure to Microplastics and Vibrio harveyi on the Immune and Stress Responses of the Big‐Belly Seahorse Hippocampus abdominalis

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, EarlyView.
Synergistic effects of microplastic and Vibrio harveyi co‐exposure on big‐belly seahorse (Hippocampus abdominalis). Seahorses were exposed to microplastics (50 beads/L of 0.2 μm SMP and 1.0 μm LMP) and injected with V. harveyi (1 × 103 CFU/mL).
