Ecological fitness impairments induced by chronic exposure to polyvinyl chloride nanospheres in Daphnia magna by Andrea Masseroni, Lorenzo Federico, Sara Villa

“…Moreover, exposure to PVC-NPs had a negative impact on the reproduction of D. magna, as evidenced by a delay in the day of the first brood, a reduction in the total number of offspring produced, and, consequently, a slower population growth rate. It is hypothesised that the ingestion of PVC-NPs by D. magna may have resulted in an impairment of ecdysone hormone functionality and that the increased moulting events potentially representing an adaptive response to the negative effects of PVC-NP adhesion to the organism's body surfaces. …”
