Plastic ingestion by fish in the coastal waters of the Hengchun Peninsula, Taiwan: Associated with human activity but no evidence of biomagnification

Kuan-Ju Chen et al.

Summary: The study found that marine fish in Taiwan are commonly ingesting microplastics, primarily fiber-based with blue color. The quantity of ingested microplastics is related to the fish's habitat, but not significantly associated with the fish's size, trophic level, and taxonomic family.

Evidences of microplastics in diverse fish species off the Western Coast of Pacific Ocean, Mexico

M. P. Jonathan et al.

Summary: The study found the presence of various microplastics in the gut contents of six fish species from Magdalena Bay, Mexico, with fibrous particles of size 100μm being the most common and colors mainly white-transparent and blue. Differences in microplastic ingestion among species are mainly influenced by species-specific characteristics, habitat, feeding strategies, and plastic availability.

Multiple impacts of microplastics can threaten marine habitat-forming species

Cinzia Corinaldesi et al.

Summary: The study found that microplastics have various harmful effects on red corals, including feeding impairment, tissue damage, altered gene expression, oxidative DNA damage, and changes in the microbiome. These diverse effects may be applicable to other habitat-forming suspension and filter feeders due to the increasing levels of microplastic contamination in the world's oceans.

A Bayesian analysis of the factors determining microplastics ingestion in fishes

Garth A. Covernton et al.

Summary: Researchers investigated the ingestion of microplastic particles (MPs) in marine and freshwater fishes to identify factors influencing MPs intake. They found that MPs concentration in fish digestive tracts did not increase with trophic level or body size, indicating no biomagnification occurred. However, larger fish were more likely to contain MPs, and clupeids showed higher MPs concentrations compared to other taxonomic families. Standardized methodologies are crucial for accurate comparisons among studies.

Microplastics in different tissues of some commercially important fish species from Anzali Wetland in the Southwest Caspian Sea, Northern Iran

Majid Rasta et al.

Summary: This study found microplastics in the gastrointestinal tract, muscle, and gonads of nine commercially-important fish species from Anzali Wetland. Omnivorous fish had higher microplastic abundances compared to carnivorous species. The microplastics ranged in size from 20 to 4800 μm and were mainly fiber-like in shape, polyeythylene in polymer, and black in color.

Microplastics do not affect the feeding rates of a marine predator

Eoghan M. Cunningham et al.

Summary: This study investigated the effects of low and high concentrations of microplastics on the feeding behavior of shore crabs. The results showed that microplastic concentrations did not significantly impact prey consumption rates, but consumption rates decreased with increasing prey densities.

Microplastics in marine fishes of economic importance in Lima, Peru

Jose Iannacone et al.

Summary: The presence of microplastics (PM) was evaluated in five economically important fish species in Peru. Higher contamination by PM was found in the digestive tract of Scartichthys gigas compared to other species. Blue, black, and white were the dominant colors of PM in the digestive tract, while blue, black, and fuchsia were dominant in the gills.
