Abstract:Aquaculture activities cannot be separated from obstacles that can lead to failure of aquaculture, including the presence of microplastics. Microplastic polystyrene (styrofoam) is a type of plastic that is commonly found in aquatic organisms (35%). Microplastics in fish can cause hormonal disturbances and high vacuolation in gonads which can cause apoptosis in gonadal cells. This study aimed to determine the effect of microplastics exposure on catfish (Clarias gariepinus) feed on the gonadal histology of male … Show more
