Simple Summary Due to its multiple properties, such as stability, hardness and economic
prices, the application of plastics has gradually increased, becoming essential in every …

Plastic pollution is an increasing global health concern, particularly the ever-increasing
amount of tiny plastic particles commonly referred to as micro-and nanoplastics (MNPs) …

Whereas the dramatic environmental impact of plastic waste rightfully receives considerable
attention by scientists, policy makers and public in general, the human health impact of …

The abundant and widespread presence of particulate plastics in the environment is
considered an area of increasing environmental, animal and human health concern. Despite …

Background The environmental pollution by microplastics is a global problem arising from
the extensive production and use of plastics. Small particles of different plastics, measured …

Currently, microplastics represent a widespread contamination found in almost every part of
the environment. The plastic industry has generated waste since the 1950s, which …

Abstract Microplastics (100nm-5 mm) and nanoplastics (1–100 nm) are collectively referred
to as micro (nano) plastics (MNPs), which are refractory to degradation, easy to migration …

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 …

Technological advances, coupled with increasing demands by consumers, have led to a
drastic increase in plastic production. After serving their purposes, these plastics reach our …

Terrestrial domestic animals are exposed to microplastics, therefore, contaminating the food
