Summary

Researchers studied how the microalga Coccomyxa sp. responds at the cellular level to exposure to PVC nanoplastics. The study aimed to elucidate the mechanisms of nanoplastic interactions with microalgae, which has significant ecological implications for understanding how plastic pollution affects primary producers in aquatic food webs.
