Adverse effects of phthalate, trimellitate, and organophosphate plasticizers on phenotypic and transcriptomic responses in the marine copepod Tigriopus japonicus.

Abstract excerpt

Plasticizers are chemical additives widely incorporated into plastics to enhance flexibility, but they can leach into aquatic environments and adversely affect marine organisms However, the molecular mechanisms underlying their toxic effects, particularly those of emerging plasticizer alternatives, remain poorly understood. To address this gap, we integrated phenotypic and transcriptomic analyses to investigate...
