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

Microplastics (MPs) are regarded as a global issue due to their toxicity effects on fish and
humans. Fish is a vital origin of human protein, which is necessary for body growth …

Nowadays, a growing number of microplastics are released into the environment due to the
extensive use and inappropriate management of plastic products. With the increasing body …

The microplastic pollution and related ecological impacts in the aquatic environment have
attracted global attention over the past decade. Microplastics can be ingested by aquatic …

Microplastic (MP) contamination has been well documented across a range of habitats and
for a large number of organisms in the marine environment. Consequently, bioaccumulation …

Exposure to microplastics (MP) in aquatic environment leads to bioaccumulation in fish, with
MP size being a major factor in determining the accumulation profile. MPs absorbed into the …

Fragmented or otherwise miniaturized plastic materials in the form of micro-or nanoplastics
have been of nagging environmental concern. Perturbation of organismal physiology and …

The reliance on plastic for a vast number of consumer products, many of them single-use,
results in their continuous entry into aquatic environments. Plastic waste can fragment into …

The production of fossil fuel-derived, synthetic plastics is continually increasing, while poor
plastic waste management has recently induced severe pollution issues. Microplastics are …

Abstract Microplastics (plastic particles< 5 mm) are a contaminant of increasing
ecotoxicological concern in aquatic environments, as well as for human health. Although …
