Research in need for #microplastics (Mⓐrtin Wⓐgner et al., 2014). Almost a decade, wonder if there are any amendments to this figure with present-day knowledge? SETAC Microplastics Interest Group Toxicity of Microplastics Explorer #OpenScience Open Specy #MicroplasticSpectra #plasticpollution

Our paper is out in Micro & #Nanoplastics! Bayesian species sensitivity distribution (#SSD) modeling for #microplastics by considering e.g., particle size and shape based on #ecotox data available in @ToMexApp. microplastics.springeropen.com/articles/10.11… In short, we need more data... So ToMex 2.0?

Happy to host today Dr. Scott Coffin Scott Coffin, Ph.D. in our #CRC1357 Microplastics Seminar Universität Bayreuth. Really exciting work to tackle the question how much #microplastic particles can we have in our drinking water? And the value of #opendata to realize a project like Toxicity of Microplastics Explorer.


5/6 #Metastudies, Metastudies and Metastudies I personally think this is the biggest shift in MP research right now - not to say we shouldn’t continue with experiments. We need data, but let’s also build more data repositories like Toxicity of Microplastics Explorer


1/Today, doubts were expressed about the negative impacts of #microplastics. We invite #INC4 delegates to consult the ToMEx tool created by scientists to inform the development of health-based thresholds to support California legislations on water quality. microplastics.springeropen.com/articles/10.11…
