The escalating production of synthetic plastics and inadequate waste management have led
to pervasive microplastic (MP) contamination in aquatic ecosystems. MPs, typically defined …

Microplastics (MPs), as an emerging pollutant, pose a significant threat to humans and
ecosystems. However, traditional MPs characterization methods are limited by sample …

Increasing accumulation of nanoplastics across ecosystems poses a significant threat to
both terrestrial and aquatic life. Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) is an emerging …

Quantitative phase analysis of cementitious materials is crucial for understanding and
predicting their performance. For anhydrous Portland cements, a variety of techniques …

From review of the very few topical studies to date, we conclude that while effects are
variable, microplastics can induce direct ionoregulatory disturbances in freshwater fish and …

Long-term environmental loading of microplastics (MPs) causes alarming exposure risks for
a variety of species worldwide, considered a planetary threat to the well-being of …

The accumulation of microplastics (MPs) resulting from disposal of plastic waste into water
sources, poses a significant threat to aquatic organisms. These are readily ingested by …

Microplastics (MPs) are ubiquitous contaminants that have become an emerging pollutant of
concern, potentially threatening human health and ecosystem environments. Although …

Microplastics (MPs) have become a matter of very serious concern as environmental
pollutants nowadays because of the humongous increased production, use-and-discard …

In this study, an automated identification workflow for Raman micro-imaging (RMI) was
developed, and the performance was evaluated by artificial samples of microplastic (MP) …
