Investigating the Epigenetic Effects of Polystyrene Nanoplastic Exposure in Bluegill (<i>Lepomis macrochirus</i>) Epithelial Cells Using Methylation-Sensitive AFLPs

Microplastics, remnants of macroplastics that have broken down to fragments smaller than 5 mm, and nanoplastics, broken down even further to sizes < 1 μm, are pervasive in aquatic ecosystems.
