Summary
This study assessed the accumulation of microplastics in the gill tissues of bivalves from multiple coastal sites. Histological analysis revealed particle-associated inflammatory responses in gill tissue, suggesting that microplastic ingestion may compromise the respiratory health and immune function of filter-feeding mollusks.
