Toxicity inhibition strategy of microplastics to aquatic organisms through molecular docking, molecular dynamics simulation and molecular modification by Xinyi Chen, Xixi Li, Yu Li

“…Base on the analyzing the bonding effect and surrounded amino acid residues between the microplastic additives and receptor protein, the main driving forces for the binding of the microplastic-additive and the protein were hydrophobic force, hydrogen bonding force and electrostatic force. The main effects and the second-order interaction of the microplastic-additives combination were analyzed using the fixed-effect model. …”
