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 …

Abstract Micro/nanoplastics (MPs/NPs) are ubiquitous in the environment and living
organisms have been exposed to these substances for a long time. When MPs/NPs enter …

Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy has been extensively used in microplastic
(MP) pollution research since 2004. The aim of this review is to discuss and highlight the …

The co-occurrence of microplastics/nanoplastics (MPs/NPs) with other environmental
contaminants has stimulated a focus shift of its skyrocketed research publications (more than …

Microplastics are pervasive pollutants and have been found in all environmental
compartments globally, including aquatic ecosystems. Ingestion and trophic transfer of …

With the widespread occurrence of microplastics in aquatic ecosystems having been firmly
established, the focus of research has shifted towards the assessments of their influence on …

The occurrence of microplastics (MPs) in aquatic environments has been a global concern
because they are toxic and persistent and may serve as a vector for many legacies and …

Wide usage of plastic products leads to the global occurrence of microplastics (MPs) in the
aquatic environment. Due to the small size, they can be bio-ingested, which may cause …

Plastic debris is an established environmental menace affecting aquatic systems globally.
Recently, microplastics (MP) and plastic leachates (PL) have been detected in vital human …

Microplastics have become one of the leading environmental threats due to their
persistence, ubiquity and intrinsic toxic potential. The potential harm that microplastics …
