The development and applications of effective analytical techniques for identification and
quantification of microplastics in diverse spheres are increasing in the scientific arena. Nile …

Microplastics are contaminants of emerging concern that have been widely detected in
aquatic environments over the past decades. While in recent years an increasing number of …

With current plastic production and the growing problem of global plastic pollution, an
increase and improvement in plastic recycling is needed. There is limited knowledge or …

Microplastic pollution is an issue of concern due to the accumulation rates in the marine
environment combined with the limited knowledge about their abundance, distribution and …

Current understanding of nano-and microplastic movement, propagation and potential
effects on biota in freshwater environments is develo** rapidly. Still, there are significant …

This study investigated the atmospheric deposition of microplastics (MPs) in Auckland, New
Zealand, from two sampling sites over a 9-week period. The sizes, morphologies, number …

Although most plastic pollution originates on land, current research largely remains focused
on aquatic ecosystems. Studies pioneering terrestrial microplastic research have adapted …

Plastic pollution is a global concern that has grown ever more acute in recent years. Most
research has focused on the impact of plastic pollution in marine environments. However …

Over the decades, interaction of microplastics with other pollutants in a dynamic
environmental set up was observed to increase their toxic effects. This scenario is worse in …

While microplastic transport, fate, and effects have been a focus of studies globally, the
consequences of their presence on ecosystem functioning have not received the same …
