The impact of dissolved organic matter on the photodegradation of tetracycline in the presence of microplastics
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers investigated how dissolved organic matter affects the photodegradation of the antibiotic tetracycline in the presence of polystyrene microplastics under simulated sunlight. The study found that both dissolved organic matter and microplastics enhanced tetracycline breakdown, but humic acid had the most pronounced accelerating effect regardless of whether microplastics were present.
