Original Abstract

Considering the superior properties of plastics, plastic production has been growing rapidly for the wide possibilities of the use of plastic materials. Conventional microplastics are not biodegradable in the environment, and therefore biodegradable materials are increasingly becoming a focus of interest. The aim of our study was to investigate the effect of polyhydroxybutyrate microparticles on duckweed (Lemna minor) the freshwater floating plant.
