Exposure to polystyrene microplastic beads causes sex-specific toxic effects in the model insect Drosophila melanogaster
The toxicity of MPs on aquatic creatures has been extensively studied, but little attention was paid to terrestrial organisms. To fill this gab, we conducted a series of experiments using Drosophila as a model organism to understand whether exposure to different concentrations (0.005, 0.05, 0.5 µg/m...
