Submicron polymer particles may mask the presence of toxicants in wastewater effluents probed by reporter gene containing bacteria
Abstract Microplastics are ubiquitous in aquatic systems and break down into submicron particles that can interact with aquatic toxic chemicals. These interactions may affect the detection of toxicants when using bacteria as a biomonitoring tool. This study examined the effects of model polystyrene...
