- An analysis of suspected microplastics in the muscle and gastrointestinal tissues of fish from Sarasota Bay, FL: exposure and implications for apex predators and seafood consumers. Conger, Eric Dziobak, Miranda McCabe, Elizabeth J Berens Curtin, Tita Gaur, Ayushi Wells, Randall S Weinstein, John E Hart, Leslie B Microplastics have been found in the gastrointestinal (GI) fluid of bottlenose dolphins (), inhabiting Sarasota Bay, FL, suggesting exposure by ingestion, possibly via contaminated fish.
