With the benefits of coming at low-cost, being light-weight and having a high formability and
durability, conventional plastics are widely used in both industry and daily life. However …

Large-scale plastic pollution occurs in terrestrial and marine environments and degrades
into microparticles (MP) and nanoparticles (NP) of plastic. Micro/nanoplastics (MP/NPs) are …

The adverse effects of plastic on adult animal and human health have been receiving
increasing attention. However, its potential toxicity to fetuses has not been fully elucidated …

Nanoplastics (NPs) have received global attention due to their wide application and
detection in various environmental or biological media. NPs can penetrate physical barriers …

Microplastics (MPs) undergo various aging processes and interact with diverse pollutants in
the environment. In the present study, we investigated the influence of ultraviolet (UV) aging …

Abstract Micro-and nanoplastics (MNPs), emerging as pervasive environmental pollutants,
present multifaceted threats to diverse ecosystems. This review critically examines the ability …

Due to the problematic degradation properties of plastics, the decomposition of plastic
results in the formation of numerous microplastics (MPs), less than 5 mm in diameter. These …

The co-occurrence of nanoplastics and other pollutants in the environment has gotten a lot
of attention, but information on the biological toxicity of their co-exposure was limited. This …

Highlights•The metabolic responses of zebrafish exposed to PE and PES MPs were
significantly altered.•The enrichment pathway analysis shows disruption of lipid and fatty …

In recent years, the toxic effects of microplastics (MPs) on aquatic organisms have been
increasingly recognized. However, the developmental toxicity and underlying mechanisms …
