Plastic pollution is a new, pressing, environmental topic. Microplastics are considered
contaminants of emerging concern and, consequently, microplastic research has grown …

In recent years, the presence of the group of contaminants, termed as microplastics (MPs)
has been recognized as significant water pollutants with considerable potential for exerting …

Urban rainwater runoff is considered to be an important way to transport microplastics into
the freshwater. By analyzing the microplastics in rainwater pipelines in different land function …

This study investigated the transfer of plastic debris in a terrestrial environment from the soil
to a plant (the mung bean, Vigna radiata), and then to a consumer (the African giant snail …

The presence of microplastics (MPs) in the environment has raised many concerns, and
therefore approaches and technologies to remove them in situ are of high interest. In this …

Microplastics, ie, plastic particles in the size range of planktonic organisms, have been found
in the water columns and sediments of lakes and rivers globally. The number and mass of …

Microplastics (MPs) are now ubiquitous in global ecosystem, therefore all biota is at risk of
exposure and potential toxicity. In this study, we presented an overview of information based …

Widespread use of plastics and mishandling has resulted in severe environmental issues
affecting seed germination and seedling growth. This study investigates the effect of …

Plastic has become indispensable for human life. When plastic debris is discarded into
waterways, these items can interact with organisms. Of particular concern are microscopic …

In this work, we successfully developed an intriguing preparation strategy to reduce the size-
dependent effect of nanoplastics (NPLs), which is the limitation of NPLs quantification by …
