Dissected part of the gut of Gammarus fossarum containing ingested PHB particles. (A) Concentration experiment (100,000 MPP individual⁻¹ 24 h⁻¹ exposure time); (B) Effect experiment (100,000 MPP individual⁻¹ 28 d⁻¹ exposure time), bright spots/areas show fluorescent MPP; (C) A Gammarus fossarum specimen dissected for the analyses: the pleon and four segments of the pereon are removed such that mesenterium and caecum filled with opaque particles and decotab material are visible.
