(Corresponding) Kalčikova G., Jemec Kokalj A., Marolt G., Žgajnar Gotvajn A.
Topic:
Microplastics in the marine environment
When microplastics enter aquatic ecosystems they are submitted to environmental aging which change their properties. Especially colonization by microorganisms alter their properties in term of density and adsorption properties. Hence the aim of the study was to evaluate the adsorption and leaching...Read more
Role of microplastics as vector for pharmaceuticals in aquatic environment
(Corresponding) Papac J., Kovačić M., Katančić Z., Kušić H., Hrnjak Murgić Z., Lončarić Božić A., Karamanis P.
Topic:
Microplastics in water treatment: fate, toxicity assessment and removal technologies
The presence of contaminants of emerging concern (CECs) in aquatic environment represents the risk due to potential adverse effects on both human health and the environment. The term CECs does not only apply to chemical contaminants but to the microplastics (MPs) as well. As MP may interact with...Read more
