Microplastic Size-Dependent Toxicity, Oxidative Stress Induction, and p-JNK and p-p38 Activation in the Monogonont Rotifer (Brachionus koreanus)
In this study, we evaluated accumulation and adverse effects of ingestion of microplastics in
the monogonont rotifer (Brachionus koreanus). The dependence of microplastic toxicity on …

Significance of adverse outcome pathways in biomarker-based environmental risk assessment in aquatic organisms
In environmental risk assessments (ERA), biomarkers have been widely used as an early
warning signal of environmental contamination. However, biomarker responses have …
