Microplastic prevalence in anatolian water frogs (Pelophylax spp.)
(Elsevier, 2022)
Frogs are on the verge of extinction due to various biotic and abiotic stressors. Rivers, lakes, ponds, wetlands, and ditches that make up their habitats are exposed to different anthropogenic pollutants. Today, plastics ...
The broad-scale microplastic distribution in surface water and sediments along Northeastern Mediterranean shoreline
(Elsevier, 2022)
Plastics manufactured to fulfil the unique demands of civilization accumulate in the sea due to their durability. Microplastics (MP) pose a greater threat than macroplastics as they can easily enter the aquatic environment ...
Ingestion of microplastics by commercial fish species from the southern Black Sea coast
(Elsevier, 2022)
Microplastic (MP) contamination is a serious threat to today's marine life. Therefore, this study investigates MP ingestion in three commercial fish species (European anchovy Engraulis encrasicolus, whiting Merlangius ...
Microplastic ingestion and egestion by copepods in the Black Sea
(Elsevier, 2021)
Ingestion and egestion of microplastics by copepods in the Black Sea was assessed for the first time. Composition and concentration of microplastics in the water column was also evaluated. Samples were collected from three ...
The microplastic pattern of wild-caught Mediterranean mussels from the Marmara Sea
(Elsevier, 2022)
The Sea of Marmara suffers from pollutants that come from municipal/industrial discharges and the Black Sea. Microplastic (MP)s, a rising environmental concern with consequences for seafood safety, are one of these ...
Microplastic pollution profile of Mediterranean mussels (Mytilus galloprovincialis) collected along the Turkish coasts
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2020)
Plastics profoundly threatens ecological balance in marine ecosystems across the globe in the current era of industrialization. Microplastics (MP), in particular, can pose risks reaching humans through the food web via ...
Plastics in an endemic fish species (Alburnus sellal) and its parasite (Ligula intestinalis) in the Upper Tigris River, Türkiye
(Elsevier, 2023)
Occurrence of micro-, meso- and macroplastics in Alburnus sellal and its parasite Ligula intestinalis is reported for the first time in the Tigris River, one of the two large rivers that defines Mesopotamia. Plastic ...
Microplastic emission trends in Turkish primary and secondary municipal wastewater treatment plant effluents discharged into the Sea of Marmara and Black Sea
(Elsevier, 2023)
Wastewater Treatment Plants (WWTPs) are recognized as one of the primary sources of microplastics, a class of contaminants that has lately gained attention. The quantity of MP that WWTPs release into the environment depends ...
Plastic occurrence in fish caught in the highly industrialized Gulf of Izmit (Eastern Sea of Marmara, Turkiye)
(Elsevier, 2023)
Occurrence of micro-(<5 mm) and mesoplastics (5-25 mm) in twelve fish species caught off Gulf of Izmit in the Sea of Marmara was investigated. Plastics were found in the gastrointestinal tracks of all the analysed species: ...
Decade of microplastic alteration in the southeastern black sea: An example of seahorse gastrointestinal tracts
(Elsevier, 2022)
Unconscious and excessive use of plastic supports the diversity and abundance of microplastics (MPs) in marine
environments. As a result of MP exposure, organisms in the marine environment are faced with adverse scenarios
up ...
