%X The ecological impacts of microplastic particles are primary environmental concerns. In this study, we selected three polyethylene particles (white, blue and fluorescent-blue microspheres, PE-MPs) and tested their effects on the growth and photosynthetic activity of the green algae Scenedesmus armatus and the cyanobacterium Micro-cystis aeruginosa after 28 days of exposure to 250, 500 and 1000 μg mL.
