The Influence of Polystyrene Microspheres Abundance on Development and Feeding Behavior of <i>Artemia salina </i>(Linnaeus, 1758)

The Influence of Polystyrene Microspheres Abundance on Development and Feeding Behavior of <i>Artemia salina </i>(Linnaeus, 1758)

In the present study, it has been evaluated how 10 µm of polyethylene microspheres can be ingested by <i>Artemia salina</i> (Linnaeus, 1758) larvae within the first 7 days of the life cycle, and the impact on their health. Twelve <i>A. salina</i> larvae (instar I) groups were...
