(2013, background): “…trials (Browne et al., 2008), the presence of microplastics in the environment still raises toxicity concerns, since plastics are known to contain and/or adsorb high concentrations of organic contaminants (Hirai et al., 2011; Mato et al., 2001; Rios et al., 2007; Teuten et al., 2007, 2009).”
