- Bivalves are important for the environment and economy, frequently used to monitor pollutants in aquatic ecosystems.
- This study examines trace metals, PAHs, OCPs, and microplastics in three types of bivalves from the Gulf of Suez, marking the first look at microplastics in these marine creatures from this area.
- Findings revealed that 72% of the bivalve samples contained microplastics, identified four types of them, and suggested that some pollutants may pose low risks to human health, with minimal hydrocarbon pollution detected.
