Published in 2018 at "Environmental science & technology"

DOI: 10.1021/acs.est.8b02497

Abstract: Diet assimilation efficiencies (AEs) of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) absorbed to microplastics and food were determined in goldfish ( Carassius auratus). Microplastics were spiked with 14 environmentally rare PCBs and incorporated into fish pellets previously spiked… read more here.
