Lithosyntrophy: Obligate syntrophy in a phosphite-oxidizing, methanogenic culture Open
The anaerobic conversion of organic matter to methane and carbon dioxide typically relies on obligate syntrophic interactions between bacteria and methanogenic archaea, where interspecies hydrogen (H 2 ) transfer enables thermodynamically …

Trophic transfer of DDE, BP-3 and chlorpyrifos from microplastics to tissues in Dicentrarchus labrax Open
Microplastic pollution and associated chemical contaminants is a topic of growing interest. In recent years, the number of publications reporting the presence of microplastics (MPs) in marine organisms has increased exponentially. However,…

Bioaccumulation of chemical pollutants from environmental microplastics in European sea bass Open
In the present study, we have designed an experiment to determine whether there is trophic transfer of chemical contaminants from environmental microplastics (EMPs) to the liver of European sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax) by testing two di…

Microplastics: the invisible threat Open
Plastic pollution is affecting marine ecosystems on a global scale. Microplastic particles are of particular concern as, due to their size, they can enter marine food webs. The damage that microplastics can cause, not only physical, due to…
