The production of plastic is still increasing globally, which has led to an increasing number
of plastic particles in the environment. Nanoplastics (NPs) can penetrate the blood-brain …

Polypropylene microplastic particles are one of the predominant pollutants in marine
ecosystems and their toxic effects are unknown in aquatic biota. The study aims to prepare …

Microplastics and nanoplastics are emerging pollutants with minute particle size and
significant specific surface area. These particles can harm organisms at tissue, cellular, and …

Microplastic contamination in marine ecosystems, and its negative effects through trophic
transfer among marine organisms, remains a growing concern. Our study investigates the …

Plastic pollution is a threat to the marine environment, the destination of mismanaged
plastic. Due to reduced size, microplastics and nanoplastics (MNPs) can interact with a wide …

Plastic pollution in aquatic ecosystems is increasing and plastic particles may adsorb and
transport a diverse array of contaminants, thereby increasing their bioavailability to biota …

Our research aims to assess the toxic impacts of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) glitters on
Artemia salina as a model zooplankton. The mortality rate was assessed using a Kaplan …

Ocean acidification and microplastic pollution are two of the major ecological concerns. The
distribution of large quantities of plastic debris and microplastics all across the oceans …

The increasing use of polypropylene (PP) in consumer products leads to the microplastic
(PP MPs) contamination of the aquatic ecosystems. Comprehensive toxicological studies of …

Microplastics (MPs) are ubiquitous pollutants that have potentially harmful and toxic effects.
MPs are frequently ingested by aquatic animals, as microplastics share a similar size and …
