Data file to 'Chronic poly(L-lactide) (PLA)- microplastic ingestion affects social behavior of juvenile European perch (Perca fluviatilis)'
AI summary Read the abstract
This is the raw data file for a study examining how chronic ingestion of polylactic acid (PLA) microplastics affects the social behavior of juvenile European perch. The data support findings that biodegradable plastic microparticles can alter the behavior of freshwater fish, even at relatively low exposure levels.

Chronic poly(l-lactide) (PLA)- microplastic ingestion affects social behavior of juvenile European perch (Perca fluviatilis)
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers fed juvenile perch a biodegradable plastic (PLA) for six months and found it significantly altered their social behavior, making them more reactive to other fish. While PLA did not affect growth or gene expression, it reduced locomotion and predator responses. The study suggests even biodegradable plastics can have behavioral toxicity in aquatic animals.
Multiple endpoints of polylactic acid biomicroplastic toxicity in adult zebrafish (Danio rerio)
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers exposed adult zebrafish to polylactic acid (PLA) bioplastic microparticles for 30 days and found accumulation in liver, brain, gills, and tissue, along with social behavior disruption, cholinergic changes, oxidative imbalance, and altered pigmentation — challenging the assumption that biodegradable bioplastics are environmentally benign.
Supplementary Material from Intraspecific behavioural and environmental contexts influence collective risk of microplastic ingestion in a social fish
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers released supplementary model outcome data supporting a behavioral study examining how social context and environmental conditions influence the collective likelihood of microplastic ingestion in a schooling fish species.
Data from: Intraspecific behavioural and environmental contexts influence collective risk of microplastic ingestion in a social fish
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers released a dataset supporting work on how social hierarchy and environmental context shape microplastic ingestion risk in a schooling fish, with dominance rank and group behavior influencing which individuals are most exposed.
Supplementary Material from Intraspecific behavioural and environmental contexts influence collective risk of microplastic ingestion in a social fish
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers released supplementary tables and figures supporting a behavioral study investigating how individual social context and local environmental conditions collectively shape the risk of microplastic ingestion among fish living in groups.
