Prof. Dr. Kress has given his talk the title “Which properties of microplastic particles are relevant for their interactions with cells?” and will explain which properties of microplastic particles are decisive for their interactions with cells. Due to the enormous variability of polymer types, chemical modifications, shapes and sizes as well as the diversity of model organisms, studying the effects of microplastics on organisms is a major challenge.
