Microplastic pollution is becoming a major issue for human health due to the recent
discovery of microplastics in most ecosystems. Here, we review the sources, formation …

Microplastic particles are ubiquitous in the environment, from the air we breathe to the food
we eat. The key question with respect to these particles is to what extent they cause risks for …

Abstract Microplastics (MPs) and nanoplastics (NPs) are emerging environmental pollutants,
having a major ecotoxicological concern to humans and many other biotas, especially …

Human ingestion of microplastics (MPs) is inevitable due to the ubiquity of MPs in various
foods and drinking water. Whether the ingestion of MPs poses a substantial risk to human …

Surging dismissal of plastics into water resources results in the splintered debris generating
microscopic particles called microplastics. The reduced size of microplastic makes it easier …

Background: Plastics have conveyed great benefits to humanity and made possible some of
the most significant advances of modern civilization in fields as diverse as medicine …

Exposure to micro-and nanoplastics (MNPs) is inevitable due to their omnipresence in the
environment. A growing body of studies has advanced our understanding of the potential …

Microplastics are small plastic pieces with sizes less than 5 mm. Due to their widespread
distribution in different environmental compartments, food, and drinking water, microplastics …

Plastics, especially microplastics in soils, are considered a severe environmental issue
worldwide. However, globally, the main research focus is on microplastic pollution in the …

Microplastics are small plastic particles that come from the degradation of plastics,
ubiquitous in nature and therefore affect both wildlife and humans. They have been detected …
