Summary

This conference abstract reports on microplastic quantities found in Norway lobster (Nephrops norvegicus) from the NW Mediterranean and investigates whether microplastic ingestion correlates with the animals' body condition or biomarker stress responses. The study contributes to understanding sublethal effects of microplastics in commercially fished crustaceans.
