Microplastic ingestion evidence by economically important farmed fish species from Turkey
(Elsevier, 2022)
Microplastic pollution and its potential impacts on humans become a global concern. This study is the first study examining the microplastic ingestion in the commercially important species Oncorhynchus mykiss Rainbow trout ...
First record of microplastic occurence at the commercial fish from Orontes River
(Elsevier, 2022)
Freshwater environments are more sensitive to anthropogenic influences and usually contain higher concentrations of pollutants than marine environments. Microplastic pollution causes additional stress on freshwater animals; ...
Detection of microplastic fibers tangle in deep-water rose shrimp (Parapenaeus longirostris, Lucas, 1846) in the northeastern Mediterranean Sea
(Springer, 2022)
Microplastic (MP) pollution in marine environments has been a major global concern in recent years. Microplastic particles pose a threat in aquatic animals by accumulating in their digestive system, acting like a pollution ...
Microplastic occurrence in the gastrointestinal tract and gill of bioindicator fish species in the northeastern Mediterranean
(Elsevier, 2022)
Microplastic pollution is an extremely emerging problem and its potential threats to the aquatic organisms were investigated worldwide. In this study, four different commercial fish species (Mullus barbatus (Linnaeus, ...
Presence of microplastic in the Patella caerulea from the northeastern Mediterranean Sea
(Elsevier, 2023)
This study reports first evidence of microplastic detection in the Patella caerulea collected from 5 different stations located in İskenderun Bay and Mersin Bay. A total of 160 P. caerulea specimens were examined and 40 ...
Microplastic Composition, Load and Removal Efficiency from Wastewater Treatment Plants Discharging into Orontes River
(Springer, 2023)
Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are the last stop for microplastic particles generated by anthropogenic activities before they enter the aquatic environment. In this study, three WWTPs discharging into Orontes River ...
