Rapid Egestion of Microplastics in Juvenile Barramundi: No Evidence of Gut Retention or Tissue Translocation

This collection presents experimental data and a literature meta-analysis to understand microplastic translocation to fish tissue and egestion rates. Juvenile barramundi (Lates calcifer) were exposed through their diet to polyamide (PA) fibres and polyethylene terephthalate (PET) fibres and fragments (8–547 μm in length) to determine if shape, size, and polymer type influence microplastic translocation and egestion rates.

本数据集收录了用于解析微塑料向鱼类组织易位及排泄速率的实验数据与文献元分析结果。研究以尖吻鲈（Lates calcifer）幼鱼为实验对象，通过饮食途径使其暴露于聚酰胺（PA）纤维、聚对苯二甲酸乙二醇酯（PET）纤维及碎片（长度范围为8–547 μm），旨在探究形状、尺寸及聚合物类型是否会对微塑料的易位与排泄速率产生影响。
