PG - 113978 LID - S0269-7491(19)35985-8 [pii] LID - 10.1016/j.envpol.2020.113978 [doi] AB - Understanding the effects of plastic debris on marine ecosystems is essential in encouraging decision-makers to take action. The present study investigates the effect of a 24 h experimental exposure to high density polyethylene (HDPE) microplastics (MPs) of different sizes (4-6, 11-13 and 20-25 mum) and at three concentrations (0.1, 1 and 10 mg MP.L(-1)) on the development and locomotor activity of early stages of Pacific oyster, Crassostrea gigas. The bivalve embryo-larval assay (NF ISO 17244, 2015) was used in this study but with additional toxicity criteria: developmental arrests, abnormal D-larvae, maximum speed and swimming trajectory. Copper (Cu), was used as a positive control. Our results show that smaller MPs (4-6 and 11-13 mum) induced higher rates of malformations and developmental arrests than the larger ones (20-25 mum). In addition, a dose-dependent decrease of maximum swimming speed was observed for larvae exposed to MPs of 4-6 and 11-13 mum. On the other hand, there was no significant difference in swimming speed with the largest MPs size tested (20-25 mum). For all three sizes of MPs, there was a decrease in straight-line swimming trajectories, and an increase in circular trajectories. This abnormal swimming behaviour could affect larvae survival as well as colonization of new habitats. CI - Copyright (c) 2020 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
