First biomonitoring of microplastic pollution in the Vaal River using Carp fish (Cyprinus carpio) “as a bio-indicator”
Fish inhabiting freshwater environments are susceptible to the ingestion of microplastics (MPs). Knowledge regarding MPs in freshwater fish in South Africa is very limited. In this study, the uptake of MPs by common carp (Cyprinus carpio) in the Vaal River in South Africa was assessed. MPs were dete...
