Summary

This study examined how biodegradable nanoplastics interact with the UV filter butyl methoxydibenzoyl methane to produce combined intestinal toxicity in zebrafish, finding that even biodegradable plastics can generate nanoplastic pollution that triggers interactive ecotoxicity with coexisting environmental chemicals.

Biodegradable plastics have been widely used to reduce pollution from conventional plastics, but their harsh degradation conditions also make them generate nanoplastic pollution and trigger interactive ecotoxicity with various coexisting pollutants.
