I'm very excited to share a ✨New Paper✨ out today in @STOTEN_journal ! We investigated how microplastics affect disease progression, using a common farmed fish🐟 This graphical abstract sums it up, or you can read more about our results in this🧵 authors.elsevier.com/a/1gPx0…

Ghastly plastic now lurks among all the beautiful glass of the diatoms in my plankton sample. Microplastic fragments and plastic microfibers. Every inshore sample I now collect contains our plastic litter. @zeiss_micro

there is a very fine line between the amount of espresso consumed at the end of the week needed to do research and the ability to handle microplastics without the caffeine shakes

In 2020, MBARI researchers discovered thousands of mysterious holes or pits on the deep seafloor off the coast of Big Sur. A closer look at these mico-depressions revealed a variety of objects like rocks, kelp holdfasts, bones, and lots of trash and fishing gear. ⁠

Talk by @SandquistRachel on their novel methodology for removing MP from marine sediments. Created an efficient and low-cost density separation device using nontoxic high density sodium polytungstate. Can apply to sediment cores!

Shocking video reveals the presence of plastic microfibers among the copepods that have been eaten by this tiny hydrozoan I found in the autumn plankton off Plymouth, UK this week. @zeiss_micro
