Santana-Viera S., Montesdecoa-Esponda S., Torres-Padrón M., (Corresponding) Sosa-Ferrera Z., Santana-Rodríguez J.
Topic: 
Emerging pollutants
Microplastics (MPs) are pollutants of emerging concern. These small particles are found throughout the world. Its best-known negative effects are that they can confuse marine organisms that would feed on them, or block their airways. In addition, they have been shown to act as vectors of...Read more
