Ecological mixture risk assessment between polystyrene nanoplastic and ivermectin seeking an approach at various trophic levels: bioassays, modeling, and regulatory aspects

Summary

This doctoral thesis examined ecological risks from combined exposure to polystyrene nanoplastics and the antiparasitic drug ivermectin across multiple trophic levels. The research used bioassays and ecological modeling to assess mixture toxicity and its regulatory implications for aquatic organisms in Quebec.
