AB  - Plastic is currently used in aquaculture as a material for settlement and 
      magnification of oyster spats. Plastic weathering and fragmentation under natural 
      conditions can lead to the production of micro and nanoparticles and additive 
      leakage, with potential toxic effects on marine life. This study investigates the 
      effects of the exposure to microplastic (MPs) cocktail derived from aged 
      aquaculture material on oyster pediveliger larvae (Crassostrea gigas). The 
      cocktail was made of high-density polyethylene (HDPE), polypropylene (PP) and 
      polyvinyl chloride (PVC). The concentrations tested were 0, 0.1, and 10 mg 
      MP.L(-1). During the 7-day fixation phase, pediveliger larvae (17 days) were 
      exposed to the MP cocktail in laboratory-controlled conditions. After exposure, 
      the success of settlement was significantly lower for larvae exposed to 10 mg 
      MP.L(-1) (49 +/- 0.9%) compared to control ones (61.8 +/- 1.6%). No malformations or 
      metamorphosis abnormalities were observed. Growth of pediveliger and spat stages 
      was monitored up to 11 months. During the first twenty-eight days of development, 
      spat growth was significantly lower for the two MPs exposure conditions (0.1 and 
      10 mg MP.L(-1); respectively -51.8% and -44.4%) compared to control group. 
      Subsequently, the previously exposed oysters grew faster than the control 
      condition, resulting in a significantly greater growth (0.1 and 10 mg MP.L(-1): 
      +18.3% and +19.7%) than the control group at the end of follow-up. The nearly 
      one-year follow-up highlighted the potential effects of MPs from aquaculture on 
      larvae and spat of C. gigas.
