Perfluorooctane sulfonic acid (PFOS) adsorbed to polyethylene microplastics: accumulation and ecotoxicological effects in the clam Scrobicularia plana

Microplastics are widespread in the marine environment, whereby organisms’ uptake these tiny particles, presenting adverse biological responses. Plastic debris also act as a vector of many contaminants which intensify their effects to marine organisms that depend on type, size, shape and chemical pr...
