Microplastics are very complex pollutants; they can be made of many polymer types and exist in various shapes and sizes. When they enter the environment they are affected by biotic and abiotic factors that cause their properties to change. In this context, the aim of our study was to evaluate the extent to which biofouling affects the properties and toxicity of microplastics. Cosmetic polyethylene microbeads were incubated in stream water for four weeks resulting in biofouling and aging. Subsequently, the changes in properties (sinkin
