Impacts of polyethylene microplastics on the performance and mechanism of di-2-ethylhexyl phthalate (DEHP) degradation by two ecotype earthworms

Di-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP), a ubiquitous agricultural plasticizer, readily leaches into soils. Earthworm-mediated DEHP biodegradation and microplastics (MPs) co-contamination effects on vermicomposting remain uncharacterized. This study evaluated DEHP biodegradation and metabolic pathways in...
