Description: Adult blue mussels (Mytilus spp.) were exposed to microplastic particles in a controlled laboratory experiment. The number of PS beads in the softbody of the mussels was determined after the exposure phase of 2 hours and after a 48 hours depuration phase in filtered sea water. Depuration in clear water lowered the amount of microplastic in the mussels' softbodies significantly.
