Effects of nano/microplastic exposure on zebrafish (Danio rerio) gut microbiome$88.4Kvalue2024start2026end

Plastic pollution is a worldwide problem. As plastic pollution is expected to grow, the amount of plastic in the environment is also expected to grow. Plastic pieces found in the environment are categorized depending on their size: microplastics (MP) (1-5000 µm) and nanoplastics (NP) (1-1000 nm). Both micro and nanoplastics can have deleterious effects when ingested by organisms in the environment. Observed effects varies from food dilution, oxidative stress and lower reproductive success. Additionally, more and more research is done on organisms microbiome. Once ingested, microplastics are ma
