Microplastic (MPs) pollution has become a global environmental concern with significant
impacts on ecosystems and human health. Although MPs have been widely detected in …

Microplastics (MPs) in natural environment are derived from various discharge processes
and undergo a series of aging that is influenced by different factors. This paper first …

Microplastics (MPs) in the environment are a major global concern due to their persistent
nature and wide distribution. The aging of MPs is influenced by several processes including …

The extensive utilization and inadequate handling of plastics have resulted in severe
environmental ramifications. In particular, plastics composed solely of a carbon-carbon (C …

Plastic pollution is a critical problem that has the potential for long-lasting impact. While all
plastics eventually break down to at least some degree, they can remain in different …

Microplastics (MPs) have accumulated in the oceans, causing adverse effects on marine
organisms and the environment. Biodegradable polylactic acid (PLA) is considered as an …

Plastics dumped in the environment are fragmented into microplastics by various factors
(UV, weathering, mechanical abrasion, animal chewing, etc.). However, little is known about …

Microplastics (MPs) have caused global concerns due to their detrimental effects on
ecosystems and even humans. Recycling aged plastic products ahead of MPs generation …

Microplastics (MPs) are considered as distinct substrates for bacterial colonization, they can
carry bacterial communities to travel around environments. The bacterial communities on …

Herein, the toxicity of 4 MPs and additives released from MPs during UV-aging was
quantitatively evaluated by the transcriptional effect level index (TELI) based on E. coli …
