The effect of salinity on the interaction between microplastic polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and microalgae Spirulina sp.

AI summary Read the abstract

Researchers examined the interaction between PET microplastics and the microalga Spirulina under varying salinity conditions, finding that salinity influenced how microplastics affected algal growth and their potential to enter the food supplement chain.

Evaluation of the Interaction Among Microalgae Spirulina sp, Plastics Polyethylene Terephthalate and Polypropylene in Freshwater Environment

AI summary Read the abstract

This study examined interactions between the microalga Spirulina sp. and two common plastics (PET and polypropylene) in freshwater, assessing how plastic degradation and algal growth affect each other in a simulated aquatic environment.

Algae-microplastics interactions and their significance in combating aquatic plastic pollution

AI summary Read the abstract

Researchers review how algae interact with microplastics in aquatic environments, examining both the harmful effects on algae and the potential to harness algal biological properties for eco-friendly microplastic removal, toxicity mitigation, and repurposing of plastic particles.

A brief overview of the interaction between micro/nanoplastics and algae

AI summary Read the abstract

This review synthesizes research on how micro- and nanoplastics harm algae — disrupting growth, pigmentation, photosynthesis, and oxidative balance — while also exploring algae as a promising eco-friendly method to remove plastic particles from water. Because algae anchor aquatic food webs as primary producers, MNP-driven algal stress cascades upward through trophic levels, ultimately threatening ecosystem health and human seafood safety.
