Environmental pollution of microplastics (MPs) is known to be anthropogenically mediated
menace to biosphere and becoming a debatable concern globally. Large quantities of …

Fragmented or otherwise miniaturized plastic materials in the form of micro-or nanoplastics
have been of nagging environmental concern. Perturbation of organismal physiology and …

In the Anthropocene, increasing pervasive plastic pollution is creating a new environmental
compartment, the plastisphere. How the plastisphere affects microbial communities and …

The global prevalence of microplastics (MPs) poses a potential threat and unpredictable risk
to the function and health of environmental systems. However, the research progress of soil …

The ubiquitous problems of microplastics in waters are receiving global attention as
microplastics can harm aquatic organisms, and finally can accumulate in the human body …

Recently, studies on microplastics (MPs) have increased rapidly due to the growing
awareness of the potential health risks related to their occurrence. The first part of this review …

Microplastics as vectors for contaminants in the environment is becoming a topic of public
