Influence of Microplastics on the Growth and the Intestinal Microbiota Composition of Brine Shrimp
Microplastics (MPs) are ubiquitous in the aquatic environment and can be frequently ingested by zooplankton, leading to various effects. Brine shrimp (Artemia parthenogenetica) has an important role in the energy flow through trophic levels in different ...
