Creator:: Mottern, Taylor H.
Abstract:: Plastics have become an essential part of everyone lives, found in almost every product made today. Tires only make up a fraction of these products but as their use increasing so does the microplastics that flake off. Many studies have evaluated the toxic effects of tire particles on aquatic environments...

Creator:: Arnold, Madison A.
Abstract:: Microplastics (<5mm) are a ubiquitous environmental pollutant that have the potential to cause significant harm in many fish species. Therefore, understanding the quantities at which they are being consumed by living organisms is crucial for characterizing risk. There are currently gaps in the microplastic literature regarding microplastic data from finfish...
Resource Type:: Undergraduate Thesis

Creator:: Lasdin, Katherine S.
Abstract:: Microplastics (<5mm diameter) are present in a considerable number of marine and aquatic species. Understanding which species, the global spatial distribution, and what quantities of microplastics are present is extremely important for understanding the potential impacts they could have on recreationally important organisms and for the assessment of risk. We...

Full Text:: - AND NANOSCALE TIRE PARTICLES AND RECYCLED RUBBER ON ZEBRAFISH By Taylor Mottern Mentor: Dr. Stacey

Creator:: Dickens, John
Abstract:: Microplastics are widely distributed in aquatic environments. The term ‘microplastics’ encompasses a wide array of particles with unique polymer constituents, morphologies, and sources, such as automobile tire tread. Tire wear particles (TWP) can end up in waterways near densely populated municipalities, where they can interact with aquatic biota. Studying the...
