	note = {In April and July, 2017, Britta Baechler, a Portland State University doctoral student, purchased Pacific oysters each from six different oyster growers on Oregon{\textquoteright}s Pacific coast.  Out of the 120 oysters, she found on average 11 suspected microplastics, mostly tiny fibers, per oyster. The data is preliminary, pending analysis of the microparticles, but the implications of a world awash in plastic, are disturbing.},
