A recent study investigating the efficacy of microplastic depuration on two commercial oyster species from the west coast of Ireland has recently been published in
Shellfish reefs such as those formed by the horse mussel (Modiolus modiolus), a large, slow growing species found in the Northern Atlantic, are complex habitats
Microplastics are ubiquitous emerging contaminants found in every habitat surveyed, building upon international databases globally. Costs and accessibility often correlate to few deep sea sediment
