Microplastic ingestion affects hydrogen production and microbiomes in the gut of the terrestrial isopod Porcellio scaber

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology, Volume 25, Issue 12, Page 2776-2791, December 2023., 2023
Abstract Microplastic (MP) is an environmental burden and enters food webs via ingestion by macrofauna, including isopods (Porcellio scaber) in terrestrial ecosystems. Isopods represent ubiquitously abundant, ecologically important detritivores. However, MP‐polymer specific effects on the host and its gut microbiota are unknown.
