Uptake and Retention of Nanoplastics in Quagga Mussels

Uptake and Retention of Nanoplastics in Quagga Mussels

Abstract Here, a set of experiments to assess the feasibility of using an invasive and widespread freshwater mussel (Dreissena rostrformis bugensis) as a sentinel species for nanoplastic detection is reported. Under laboratory experimental conditions, mussels ingest and retain fluorescent polystyren...
