Ingestion of car tire crumb rubber and uptake of associated chemicals by lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus)
Hägg, Fanny; Herzke, Dorte; Nikiforov, Vladimir; Booth, Andy; Sperre, Kristine Hopland; Sørensen, Lisbet; Egeness, Mari Jystad; Halsband, Claudia (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-10-12)Car tire rubber constitutes one of the largest fractions of microplastics emissions to the environment. The two main emission sources are tire wear particles (TWPs) formed through abrasion during driving and runoff of crumb rubber (CR) granulate produced from end-of-life tires that is used as infill on artificial sports fields. Both tire wear particles and crumb rubber contain a complex mixture ... -
Ingestion of Tyre Crumb Rubber and Uptake of Associated Contaminants in Marine Invertebrates (Pandalus borealis) and Fish (Cyclopterus lumpus) – An Experimental Exposure Study
Hägg, Fanny (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2022-05-15)Crumb rubber (CR) produced from end of life vehicle tires is widely used on artificial sports fields and to create urban artificial surfaces. It is also used as a surrogate for tyre wear particles in experimental studies simulating the behaviour and effects of car tyre particles in the environment. It is known to contain a wide range of organic chemicals and metals, some of which are only just being ...
