Impacts of Microplastics, Cadmium, and Their Mixtures on Biochemical Biomarkers in the Freshwater Bivalve <i>Corbicula fluminea</i> (Bivalvia, Corbiculidea)

Impacts of Microplastics, Cadmium, and Their Mixtures on Biochemical Biomarkers in the Freshwater Bivalve <i>Corbicula fluminea</i> (Bivalvia, Corbiculidea)

Microplastics (MPs) are a worldwide contaminant of significant environmental concern due to their persistence, widespread distribution, and toxic potential. These plastic particles are taken up by invertebrates such as bivalves. Previous studies have indicated that MPs can serve as carriers for othe...
