Experimental Dataset: Microplastics-Glyphosate Study in Microalgae
Researchers compiled raw experimental data supporting a study on the interaction between microplastics and glyphosate in the freshwater green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, providing the underlying dataset for published findings on combined contaminant effects.
Combinatory effects of microplastics and emerging contaminants on alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii
Researchers exposed the green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii to two types of microplastics found in face washes — PVC and an acrylate copolymer — along with the preservative 2-phenoxyethanol, finding that combined exposure had distinct effects on algal growth compared to individual pollutants. This is relevant because microplastics rarely occur alone in the environment, and their interactions with other chemicals can either amplify or dampen ecological harm.
Co-Exposure to Glyphosate and Polyethylene Microplastic Affects Their Toxicity to Chlorella vulgaris: Implications for Algal Health and Aquatic Risk
Researchers assessed the individual and combined toxicity of polyethylene microplastics and glyphosate to the microalga Chlorella vulgaris in acute and chronic exposures. The combination caused greater toxicity than either contaminant alone, particularly at chronic exposure durations, indicating synergistic effects relevant to agricultural runoff contamination.
Microalgae–microplastics interactions at environmentally relevant concentrations: Implications toward ecology, bioeconomy, and UN SDGs
This study investigated how microalgae interact with microplastics at environmentally relevant concentrations, examining growth inhibition, aggregation, and photosynthetic effects, with implications for aquatic ecosystem function and the feasibility of microalgae-based bioremediation.
The Effect of Mixed Microplastic on Freshwater Microalgae Growth and Survival
Researchers tested the effects of mixed polypropylene and PVC microplastics at five different ratio combinations on a freshwater microalgae community, finding that mixture composition affected algal growth and survival differently than either polymer alone.
