Beyond microplastics: Water soluble synthetic polymers exert sublethal adverse effects in the freshwater cladoceran Daphnia magna - experimental Dataset
AI summary Read the abstract
This is a raw experimental dataset accompanying a study showing that water-soluble synthetic polymers cause harmful effects in the freshwater crustacean Daphnia magna. The data support research suggesting that dissolved plastic polymers — not just solid microplastic particles — can pose risks to aquatic organisms.
This Dataset contains the raw experimental data for the article "Beyond microplastics: Water soluble synthetic polymers exert sublethal adverse effects in the freshwater cladoceran Daphnia magna" by Simona Mondellini, Matthias Schott, Martin G.J. Löder, Seema Agarwal, Andreas Greiner, Christian Laforsch. Published on Science of the Total Environment (2022) https://doi.org/10.1016/j.scitotenv.2022.157608 The file "dataset information" contains a description of the other files.

Beyond microplastics: Water soluble synthetic polymers exert sublethal adverse effects in the freshwater cladoceran Daphnia magna
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers found that water-soluble synthetic polymers, an overlooked category of plastic pollution, caused sublethal adverse effects in Daphnia magna including reduced reproduction and feeding rates, highlighting a previously unrecognized environmental risk beyond conventional microplastics.
Beyond microplastics: Water soluble synthetic polymers exert sublethal adverse effects in the freshwater cladoceran Daphnia magna
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers exposed the freshwater cladoceran Daphnia magna to five water-soluble synthetic polymers commonly used as industrial flocculants and coagulants, finding sublethal life history changes and elevated reactive oxygen species levels without acute mortality. Because daphnids are keystone species controlling phytoplankton biomass, these sublethal effects could produce cascading trophic consequences, highlighting water-soluble polymers as a neglected class of aquatic contaminants.
