Summary

Researchers assessed microplastic accumulation, genotoxicity, and gill tissue damage in wild herbivorous fish from the Brantas River in Indonesia, providing integrative evidence that microplastic pollution in tropical river systems causes measurable biological harm at the cellular and tissue level.

Study Type Environmental

The presence of microplastics in freshwater ecosystems poses emerging ecological and public health challenges, yet integrative studies in tropical river systems remain limited. This study assessed microplastic accumulation, genotoxicity, and gill histopathological alterations in wild herbivorous...
