متن کاملEnvironmentally relevant concentrations of microplastic particles influence larval fish ecology.
The widespread occurrence and accumulation of plastic waste in the environment have become a growing global concern over the past decade. Although some marine organisms have been shown to ingest plastic, few studies have investigated the ecological effects of plastic waste on animals. Here we show that exposure to environmentally relevant concentrations of microplastic polystyrene particles (90...
متن کاملSynthesis of Silica/Polystyrene Nanocomposite Particles by Miniemulsion Polymerization
Miniemulsion polymerization is one of heterogeneous polymerization method that can be effectively used to synthesis of various novel organic-inorganic nanocomposite particles. This method can provide opportunity of good incorporation between the polymer and inorganic phases in the formed submicrometer-sized particles. In this article, we report preparation polystyrene/silica nanocomposite p...
متن کاملStudy on bioaccumulation and histopathological effects of microplastic polystyrene on Goldfish (Carassius auratus)
Microplastics are known to be emerging contaminants and there are widespread concerns about their potential toxic effects. Histopathological study is one of the appropriate methods in diagnosing the effects of environmental pollutants on aquatics. In this study, the accumulation and adsorption of polystyrene microplastics (PS-MPs) in the gills of Goldfish were identified and its toxic effect...
متن کاملPreparation of Silver - Coated Polystyrene Composite Particles
We report a feasible approach to the preparation of monodispersed metal-shell composite microspheres based on a combination of surface reaction and surface seeding techniques. The method was implemented for coating polystyrene (PS) spheres with silver shell having a variable thickness by controlling the amount of reagents in the reaction procedure. These composite spherical particles in dimensi...
