Microplastics and nanoplastics have become emerging particulate anthropogenic pollutants
and rapidly turned into a field of growing scientific and public interest. These tiny plastic …

Since microplastics (MPs) and nanoplastics (NPs) have started emerging as ubiquitous
contaminants in the environment, a variety of analytical techniques has been developed and …

Plastic pollution in the marine environment has been identified as a global problem; different
polymer types and fragment sizes have been detected across all marine regions, from sea …

Mass spectrometry has emerged as a vital tool for microplastics (MPs) analysis, offering
sensitivity and specificity to identify diverse polymer types. This review explores mass …

Microplastics and nanoplastics are hazardous to ecosystems, wildlife, and through seafood,
also for human health. Due to biological, chemical, and physical characteristics …

The discharge of plastic waste and subsequent formation and global distribution of
microplastics (MPs) has caused great concern and highlighted the need for dedicated …

Submicro/nano-plastics (subμ-NPs,< 1 μm), as emerging environmental contaminants, are
gaining increasing attention worldwide since they are easier ingested by organisms and …

Microplastics are emerging pollutants of great concern since they are widely distributed in
the environment. While the occurrence of microplastics was studied in marine and …

The recent discovery of nanoplastics in most ecosystems is a major, yet poorly known health
issue. Here, we review nanoplastics with focus on their presence in the environment, their …

Micro-and nanoplastics (MNPs) in the environment are an emerging issue of global concern.
They accumulate in natural ecosystems, and are ingested by organisms and transferred to …
