Summary: Early exposure to an environmentally relevant pesticide mixture induces multi-scale latent effects possibly affecting life history traits in the Pacific oyster, Crassostrea gigas. The study found that exposure to a combination of 18 pesticides and metals at environmental concentrations during the embryo-larval stage resulted in disturbed swimming behavior, increased size and weight at specific time points, and altered expression of development-related genes. Additionally, DNA methylation analyses showed significant modifications in exposed larvae, marked by a demethylation trend.

Summary: This study examined the quality changes of shelled Pacific oysters stored at -1 degrees C for 28 days. The results showed that superchilling storage inhibited microorganism growth and led to changes in biochemical properties. Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) rapidly decreased while adenosine diphosphate (ADP) and adenosine monophosphate (AMP) accumulated in the adductor muscle. The sensory evaluations indicated that oysters could be stored for up to 21 days at -1 degrees C. Superchilling storage at -1 degrees C can better maintain the eating quality of shelled oysters and extend their shelf life.

Summary: The colonization of microplastics by microorganisms can lead to the pollution of marine environments. The composition of the microorganisms on microplastics is affected by various factors, making it difficult to understand how the biofilm evolves over time. In this study, the bacterial community on plastic pellets in an oyster farming area was investigated. The results showed distinct bacterial families on the plastics compared to seawater, with filamentous Cyanobacteria being prevalent. The surrounding environment played a central role in shaping the diversity of the bacterial community on the plastics. Early-colonizers such as Alteromonas, Pseudoalteromonas, and Vibrio were identified, suggesting that the biofilms on microplastics may remain in early stages of development at large oceanic scales. The study raises the hypothesis that most members of the plastisphere, including potential pathogens, result from opportunistic colonization processes rather than long-term transport.

Summary: Plastic food packaging, which accounts for 40% of global plastic production, is one of the top 10 items commonly found in aquatic environments. These packaging materials contain high levels of additives, with over 4000 formulations available on the market, leading to the release of constitutive chemicals into the environment and posing potential health risks to consumers. This study investigated the chemical and toxicological profiles of two types of food packaging materials, polypropylene (PP) and polylactic acid (PLA), using bioassays and analytical techniques. The results showed the presence of various additive compounds, such as phthalates plasticizers, phosphorous flame retardants, antioxidants, and UV-stabilizers, in both the raw materials and leachates. However, no significant toxic effects were observed in short-term bioassays. This study highlights the complexity of assessing the additive content and toxicity of plastic packaging, emphasizing the need for more transparency in polymer formulations.

Summary: This opinion paper provides a scientific perspective on the ongoing debate surrounding the role of biodegradable plastics in addressing plastic pollution in various environments. It highlights the current limitations in proving plastic biodegradability and assessing toxicity, as well as the need for adapting waste collection and treatment systems for the use of compostable plastics. The paper emphasizes that there is no universal biodegradability of plastics and that viewing the environment as a waste treatment system is not acceptable.

Summary: The increasing production of plastics and insufficient waste management have resulted in serious pollution of the marine environment by plastic debris. Unlike other known pollutants, plastic can cause physical, chemical, and biological toxic effects. This critical review questions our ability to effectively assess the ecological risks associated with plastic pollution, as scientific articles over the past two decades have highlighted toxic effects at all levels of biological integration. Biases in concentration, size, shape, composition, and microbial colonization have revealed that current toxicity and ecotoxicity tests are not adapted to this unique pollutant. The review suggests improvements to plastic toxicity studies and standards to support future legislation.

Summary: Fast fashion and our daily use of fibrous materials release a large amount of microfibres (MF) into the oceans. The study investigated the effects of different types of textile MF, both natural and synthetic, on oysters and found that ingestion of natural MF disrupted oyster digestive and immune functions. However, synthetic MF had minimal effects, suggesting that the toxicity of MF may be related to fibers weaving rather than the material itself. The study also highlighted the need to consider both natural and synthetic particles and their leachates to thoroughly evaluate the impact of anthropogenic debris on marine organisms.
