Summary
This review discusses how microplastics accumulate in bivalves such as oysters and mussels in Pacific Northwest coastal waters, how they move up the food chain, and why seafood consumers in the region may face elevated exposure risks. The paper synthesizes the threat to both marine ecosystem stability and human health from microplastic bioaccumulation in commercially important shellfish.
The presence of microplastics (MPS) in the Pacific Northwest (PNW) ecosystem has emerged as a pressing environmental concern, affecting both the local ecosystem and human health. Bivalves, integral members of the local ecosystem, are vulnerable to ingesting microplastics, which bioaccumulate in their tissues, leading to adverse health effects and contributing to biomagnification in the food chain, endangering keystone species and ecosystem stability. The unintentional ingestion of microplastics through seafood consumption raises significant health concerns for humans. These threats are a huge cause for alarm as they have the potential to irreparably damage our enviornment and health, and we should address these issues before they become a reality of the world.
