Summary

Preliminary data were presented on the impact of microplastic exposure on the blue-red shrimp (Aristeus antennatus) at the International Conference on Microplastic Pollution in the Mediterranean Sea. The study contributes early evidence of microplastic ingestion and potential biological effects in this commercially important deep-water crustacean.
