Low levels of microplastics recorded from the common periwinkle, Littorina littorea on the west coast of Ireland
(2019-12)
Microplastics (MPs) are an environmental pollutant of increasing concern. However, little research has assessed MP levels in intertidal gastropods. The authors explored MP abundance in the gastropod Littorina littorea from ...

(2016-04-04)
This paper argues that collaboration between Higher Education Institutions and Incubation Centres can contribute to the embedding of entrepreneurship in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) disciplines. ...
Current environmental microplastic levels do not alter emergence behaviour in the intertidal gastropod Littorina Littorea
(2019)
Microplastics (MPs) are an environmental pollutant of increasing concern. However, little research has assessed MP levels in intertidal gastropods. The authors explored MP abundance in the gastropod Littorina littorea from ...
