First Evidence of Microplastics in the Yolk and Embryos of Common Cuttlefish (<i>Sepia officinalis</i>) from the Central Adriatic Sea: Evaluation of Embryo and Hatchling Structural Integrity and Development

First Evidence of Microplastics in the Yolk and Embryos of Common Cuttlefish (<i>Sepia officinalis</i>) from the Central Adriatic Sea: Evaluation of Embryo and Hatchling Structural Integrity and Development

Once they reach the aquatic environment, microplastics (MPs) are accidentally ingested by aquatic biota, thus entering the food chain with possible negative effects. The present study investigated, for the first time, MP presence in cuttlefish (<i>Sepia officinalis</i>) eggs and their as...
