The microplastic pollution and related ecological impacts in the aquatic environment have
attracted global attention over the past decade. Microplastics can be ingested by aquatic …

The ubiquitous presence of microplastics (MPs) and nanoplastics (NPs) in the environment
is an undeniable and serious concern due to their higher persistence and extensive use in …

Due to the small size, high mobility and large surface area, nanoplastics (NPs) showed high
potential risks to aquatic organisms. This paper reviews the toxicity of NPs to aquatic …

In recent decades, the quantity of plastic waste products has increased tremendously. As
plastic wastes are released into the environment, they exert harmful effects on biota and …

Plastic pollution is a fast-rising environmental catastrophe. Microplastics and nanoplastics
(MNPs) are ubiquitous components of most aquatic environments, and their burgeoning …

Littered plastics are partly introduced into water bodies, ultimately transporting this waste to
the shores and oceans. At the shore, ultraviolet (UV) radiation (also present in other …

Increases in plastic-related pollution and their weathering can be a serious threat to
environmental sustainability and human health, especially during the present COVID-19 …

With the mass production and use of plastic products, which leads to their continuous entry
into the water environment, the problem of environmental pollution has been paid more and …

The environmental impacts of plastic pollution have recently attracted universal attention,
especially in the aquatic environment. However, research has mostly been focused on …

Nanomaterials (NMs) are able to interact with natural organic matter (NOM) such that NOM
is adsorbed on the surface of NMs to form an ecological corona (eco-corona). The formation …
