Summary

Researchers investigated whether triclosan adsorption onto polystyrene nanoplastics modifies the toxicity of each contaminant individually, using a multi-tiered approach to assess how nanoplastic carrier effects alter the combined hazard of this common antimicrobial agent in aquatic environments.

Polymers

The risk associated to the action of nanoplastics as carriers of environmental pollutants was investigated by a multi-tiered approach.
