文摘

Earthworms may be able to selectively ingest microplastics and/or to egest them. Serious histological damages in the gut of earthworms were observed. Molecular changes in the body of earthworms point for possible immune system responses. Hystopathopatological analyses also showed serious signs of gut inflammation. Immune system responses seemed to be related with those to deal with strange bodies.
