Summary

This review compiled 10 years of scientific literature on microplastic impacts on freshwater macroinvertebrates in Colombia, finding that despite the environmental importance of these organisms, MP research in Colombian freshwater systems is scarce compared to marine studies. The review called for expanded monitoring and experimental research on MP effects in Colombian rivers and lakes.

Study Type Environmental

This study compiles the scientific literature of the last 10 years on microplastics and their impact on macroinvertebrates in freshwater ecosystems in Colombia. Despite their environmental and public health relevance, research on these emerging contaminants is scarce compared to studies in marine systems in the country.
