Raw data related to publication "Microplastics could be marginally more hazardous than natural suspended solids –a meta-analysis"
Summary
This meta-analysis provides raw data supporting a study comparing microplastic toxicity to natural suspended solids in water. The findings suggest that microplastics may be only marginally more harmful than natural particles, which is important context for understanding the actual health risks microplastics pose compared to other particles we routinely encounter.
Supplementary data table 1 contains collated toxicity data for microplastics and suspended solids. The R-code for all analyses which are based on data table 1 is also provided. Data and R-code are related to publication:Microplastics could be marginally more hazardous than natural suspended solids –a meta-analysisM. Ogonowski1*, M. Wagner2, B. Rogell1, M. Haave3,4, A.
