Abstract Microplastics (MPs,< 5 mm) in the environment have attracted worldwide attention
due to their wide distribution and difficulty in handling. Aging processes such as UV …

As two major types of pollutants of emerging concerns, microplastics (MPs) and antibiotics
(ATs) coexist in aquatic environments, and their interactions are a source of increasing …

Nowadays, a growing number of microplastics are released into the environment due to the
extensive use and inappropriate management of plastic products. With the increasing body …

Plastic pollution, particularly non-degradable residual plastic films and microplastics (MPs),
is a serious environmental problem that continues to worsen each year. Numerous studies …

Microplastics (MPs) are emerging pollutants that act as a carrier of toxic pollutants, release
toxic substances, and aggregate in biota. The adsorption behavior of MPs has recently …

Contamination of waters and soils with microplastics (MPs) is an emerging environmental
issue worldwide. MPs constitute a cocktail of various additives and polymers besides …

Microplastics as vectors for contaminants in the environment is becoming a topic of public
interest. Microplastics have been found to actively adsorb heavy metals, per-fluorinated alkyl …

Microplastics (MPs) have recently attracted much attention due to their widespread
distribution in the aquatic environment. Microplastics can act as a vector of heavy metals in …

ABSTRACT Weathering of microplastics (MPs,< 5 mm) in terrestrial and aquatic
environments affects MP transport and distribution. This paper first summarizes the sources …

Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are considered to be the main sources of microplastic
