Microplastics in the Marine Environment: Distribution, Interactions and Effects (2015, background): “For example, field-caught brown shrimps (Crangon crangon) (Pott 2014) and farmed and store-brought bivalves (De Witte et al. 2014; Van Cauwenberghe and Janssen 2014) had microplastics in their digestive system.”
Microplastics in Fish and Shellfish – A Threat to Seafood Safety? (2020, background): “…on Mytilus spp. (mostly M. edulis) obtained from Belgian department stores and from wild specimens collected from quaysides in Belgium and The Netherlands, the average number of microplastics (>10–20 µm) was reported to be in the range of 0.26 to 0.51 per gram edible tissue (De Witte et al. 2014).”

(2017, background): “Due to their small size, MP can be ingested by a wide range of marine organisms such as zooplankton, bivalves and worms (De Witte et al., 2014; Devriese et al., 2015; Graham and Thompson, 2009; Rochman et al., 2015; Sussarellu et al., 2016; Van Cauwenberghe and Janssen, 2014; Van Cauwenberghe et…”
