Heavy Metal Pollution and Potential Ecological Risk Assessment in a Typical Mariculture Area in Western Guangdong

Researchers assessed heavy metal contamination in seawater, sediments, and feed in a mariculture area of western Guangdong, China, finding that lead and copper exceeded standard limits in breeding wastewater and that the sediment was at low to moderate ecological risk from chromium, copper, arsenic, cadmium, and lead.

Selenium Yeast Mitigates Diquat-Induced Oxidative Stress in Rooster Testicles and Preserves Reproductive Performance

This paper is not relevant to microplastics research — it examines whether selenium yeast supplementation protects rooster reproductive health from oxidative stress caused by the pesticide diquat, with no connection to microplastic contamination.
