This study address for the first time in Argentina and the South American continent the effect of water management on the presence of microplastics (MPs) in a shallow lake, assessing their contribution to the zooplankton...

Materias / palabras clave: microplastics, nanoplastics, macroplastics, plastic waste, biodegradable materials; Technology: Environmental technology. Sanitary engineering: Environmental pollution; Technology: Chemical technology: Polymers and polym...

In coastal areas, microplastics (MPs) can deposit in sediment, allowing it to be ingested by benthic organisms, like mussels, thus creating a possible transfer to humans. The aim of this study is to evaluate MPs pollutio...

Abstract Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) and microplastics (MPs) are certain types of persistent plastic contaminants that are a cause of concern to both the ecosystems and human health. The nanotechnologies o...

Microplastics in agricultural soils may act as sorptive agents for organic contaminants. This study investigated the effects of soil aging of linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) microplastics on the sorption and deso...

Aerobic granular sludge(AGS), characterized by high biological retention capacity and environmental stress resistance, has emerged as a frontier technology for dyeing wastewater treatment. However, the impact of cellulos...

Microplastics (MPs), environmental pollutants resulting from the degradation of plastic products and industrial processes, have become ubiquitous in global ecosystems. MPs can enter the human body through ingestion, inha...

The expanding deployment of biodegradable mulch films in global agriculture aims to mitigate persistent plastic pollution, yet the fate of resulting biodegradable microplastics (BMPs) in soil ecosystems remains poorly ch...

Microplastics are currently considered widespread marine pollutants, accumulating in sediments and shorelines around the world. Spatial distribution of microplastics in marine sediments is consequence of a combination of...

ABSTRACT Growing global concern surrounds microplastics, found in various environments. However, data on microplastics contamination in salted shrimp and associated health risks remain scarce. We analyzed whether salted ...

Abstract Microplastics (MPs) represent a significant environmental pollutant and have raised considerable concern due to their tendency to accumulate in animals, plants, and humans, thereby posing potential health risks....

Abstract In recent times, both in vitro and in vivo studies have demonstrated toxicological and pathological evidence of microplastic exposure in neurological dysfunction and diseases. The mechanistic linkage of micropla...

Abstract Microplastics (MPs) have emerged as pervasive contaminants in surface and ground water systems worldwide, making it an increasing threat to ecosystem integrity and human health. Despite a rapid increase in resea...
