The study found that biofouling of microplastics in freshwater environments significantly affects zooplankton ingestion rates, leading to a higher consumption of biofouled microplastics. Results showed that zooplankton ingested biofouled microplastics at a higher rate compared to virgin microplastics, highlighting the need for further investigation into the reasons behind this preference.
The influence of biofouling on zooplankton ingestion rates of plastics in freshwater environments has received limited attention. We investigated how biofouling of microplastics in wastewater effluent and in fresh surface water influences Daphnia magna's microplastic consumption. The differences in ingestion of the biofouled as compared with the virgin microplastics were higher for the surface water by a factor of seven compared with a factor of two for the effluent. The intake of biofouled microplastics by D. magna was higher compared with virgin plastics, but the reason for this preference should be further investigated. Environ Toxicol Chem 2022;00:1-6.
