Microplastics induce transcriptional changes, immune response and behavioral alterations in adult zebrafish
Abstract Microplastics have become pervasive environmental pollutants in both freshwater and marine ecosystems. The presence of microplastics have been recorded in the tissues of many wild fish species, and laboratory studies have demonstrated that microplastics can exert adverse health effects. To...
