In recent years, there has been a growing number of studies on the impact of microplastics
(MPs) on biota. However, its effects on birds' health are poorly understood. Thus, we aimed …

Plastic pollution can pose a threat to birds. Yet, little is known about the sublethal effects of
ingested microplastics (MP), and the effects of MP< 1 mm in birds remain unknown. This …

Microplastics (MPs) pollution is omnipresent in the global environment, and its potential
harm to animal health has aroused widespread concern. The primary pathways and …

Plastic waste and debris have caused substantial environmental pollution globally in the
past decades, and they have been accumulated in hundreds of terrestrial and aquatic avian …

Microplastics have become emerging contaminants, causing widespread concern about
their potential toxic effects. In this study, the uptake and tissue accumulation of polystyrene …

Introduction Microplastic pollution seriously threatens the health and safety of humans and
wildlife. Avian is one of the main species endangered by microplastics. However, the …

Although we are witnesses of an increase in the number of studies examining the
exposure/effects of microplastics (MPs) on different organisms, there are many unknowns …

The widespread presence and accumulation of microplastics (MPs) in organisms has led to
their recognition as a major global ecological issue. There is a lot of data on how MPs affect …

This study aimed to examine the impact of chronic (30 days) exposure to polystyrene
microplastics (PS-MPs) of different sizes (50 nm and 2 µm) and at different concentrations …

Microplastics (MPs) seriously pollute and potentially threaten human health. Birds are
sentinels of environmental pollutants, which respond quickly to contamination events and …
