Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Pollution by synthetic polymers is even more problematic to the environment when this material is fragmented into small portions, forming microplastics. We analyzed the contamination of ichthyofauna by microplastics in an important river of the Atlantic Rainforest in regard to abundance, diversity of morphotypes, polymers, colors, and sizes of the synthetic particles in 20 species of fi...
