Ingestion of Nanoplastics and Microplastics by Pacific Oyster Larvae [PDF]
Plastic debris is a prolific contaminant effecting freshwater and marine ecosystems across the globe. Of growing environmental concern are "microplastics"and "nanoplastics" encompassing tiny particles of plastic derived from manufacturing and macroplastic fragmentation.
