Evaluating microplastic particles as vectors of exposure for plastic additive chemicals using a food web model

Abstract Microplastic particles (MPs) represent potential hazards for humans and wildlife, including as vectors for chemical exposure (e.g. plastic additives and pollutants sorbed from the surrounding environment). The leaching of chemicals from MPs has been identified as a potential exposure pathwa...
