Nanoplastics (NPs) are anthropogenic contaminants that raise concern, as they cross biological barriers. Metals’ adsorption on NPs’ surface also carries ecotoxicological risks to aquatic organisms. This study focuses on the impacts of three distinct NPs on the Caribbean oyster Isognomon alatus through dietary exposure. (277 characters)
