Özet
Pollution of the aquatic environment by microplastic could be having a massive impact onmarine life. As far as the dimensions of the microplastics decrease, the negative effects are alsoincreasing. In this study, the effects of 1 ?m diameter polystyrene microplastics (PSMs) onDaphnia magna and Neocaridina davidi were investigated. The acute toxicity test wasconducted on Daphnia magna. According to the test LC50 value was calculated as 808.97?g/mL. According to genotoxic evaluation on Neocaridina davidi with single cell gelelectrophoresis (Comet), tail length, tail intensity and tail moment were increased by PSMscompared to the control.
