Microplastics have been identified as an emerging pollutant due to their irrefutable
prevalence in air, soil, and particularly, the aquatic ecosystem. Wastewater treatment plants …

Abstract Microplastics (MPs) and nanoplastic (NPs) pollution is a global concern due to the
massive use of plastic products. Although there have been many studies on the treatments …

Plastic particles are ubiquitous pollutants in the living environment and food chain but no
study to date has reported on the internal exposure of plastic particles in human blood. This …

The inhomogeneity of plastisphere and soil may result in different microbial communities,
thus potentially affecting soil functions. Biodegradable plastics offer an alternative to …

Microplastics pollution is major threat to ecosystems and is impacting abiotic and biotic
components. Microplastics are diverse and highly complex contaminants that transport other …

Microplastic pollution is a recently discovered threat to ecosystems requiring the
development of new analytical methods. Here, we review classical and advanced methods …

Abstract Microplastics (< 5 mm) are ubiquitous contaminants of growing concern. These
have been found in multiple environmental compartments, including remote sites where …

The presence of microplastics within the gut of animals is well documented. Whether
microplastics bioaccumulate in organisms and biomagnify in food webs remains unclear …

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 …

In recent years, plastic waste has become a universally significant environmental problem.
Ingestion of food and water contaminated with microplastics is the main route of human …
