Background: Plastics have conveyed great benefits to humanity and made possible some of
the most significant advances of modern civilization in fields as diverse as medicine …

Microplastics has become a global concern due to their ubiquitous presence which poses
unavoidable human exposure risks. Geographical distribution and yearly trends of research …

Plastic cutting boards are a potentially significant source of microplastics in human food.
Thus, we investigated the impact of chopping styles and board materials on microplastics …

Terrestrial domestic animals are exposed to microplastics, therefore, contaminating the food
chain, in the case of livestock, or acting as sentinels for human exposure, in the case of …

We investigated microplastic (MP) contamination in 16 commonly-consumed protein
products (seafoods, terrestrial meats, and plant-based proteins) purchased in the United …

The extensive use of plastics leads to the release and diffusion of microplastics. Household
plastic products occupy a large part and are closely related to daily life. Due to the small size …

Microplastic (MP) pollution has become one of the global environmental concerns, but the
contamination and effect of MP on chicken skeletal muscle are scarcely researched. Here …

Microplastics (MPs) pervade the environment, infiltrating food sources and human bodies,
raising concerns about their impact on human health. This review is focused on three key …

Microplastics have been recently detected in many environmental media and living
organisms, yet their transfer and toxicity to humans are poorly known. Here, we review …

Microplastics are a prolific environmental contaminant that have been evidenced in human
tissues. Human uptake of microplastic occurs via inhalation of airborne fibres and ingestion …
