• Interactions of Microplastics with Freshwater Biota (2018, background): “[60] detected modulations of adverse effects by an exposure to phenanthrene-loaded LDPE fragments (African catfish) and PS beads and fluoranthene (Mytilus spp.”
• Quantitative investigation of the mechanisms of microplastics and nanoplastics toward zebrafish larvae locomotor activity. (2017, background): “One possible explanation is that once oxidized, GSH was reduced back by glutathione reductase (GR) (Couto et al., 2013), because polystyrene microplastics can significantly induce GR activity in mussels (Paul-Pont et al., 2016).”
• Ecotoxicological effects of microplastics on biota: a review (2018, background): “Compared to fluoranthene-exposed mussels, Paul-Pont et al. (2016) observed accumulation of higher concentrations of fluoranthene in Mytilus spp. exposed to both PS microbeads and fluoranthene owing to the higher partition coefficient of PS particles.”
• Assessment of microplastics in freshwater systems: A review. (2019, background): “At the same time, the inhibition of microplastics on metabolic enzymes can weaken the metabolic transformation of PAHs and increase their accumulation in organisms (Paul-Pont et al., 2016).”
• Microplastics in fisheries and aquaculture (2017, background): “, 2014) and blue mussels (Mytilus edulis) (Paul-Pont et al., 2016).”
• Feasting on microplastics: ingestion by and effects on marine organisms (2018, background): “An increase in the mortality of hemocytes could in turn trigger the production of reactive oxygen species (Paul-Pont et al. 2016).”
