Due to the accumulation of an enormous amount of plastic waste from municipal and
industrial sources in landfills, landfill leachate is becoming a significant reservoir of …

Microplastics are particles smaller than five millimeters deriving from the degradation of
plastic objects present in the environment. Microplastics can move from the environment to …

The widespread use of plastics determines the inevitable human exposure to its by-
products, including microplastics (MPs), which enter the human organism mainly by …

Microplastics are ubiquitous in the environment, including in food and drinking water.
Consequently, there is growing concern about the human health risks associated with …

The ubiquitous presence of microplastics (MPs) and their health effects is a recent scientific
topic. However, the investigation of MPs in human/biological matrices has several limitations …

At present plastic residues has become grave threat to the environment. Microplastics are
plastic residues with a size< 5 mm, due to their small size it is very difficult to remove them …

Microplastics are tiny plastic particles smaller than 5 mm. that have been widely detected in
the environment, including in wastewater. They originate from various sources including …

Background: Microplastics are ubiquitous in natural environments. Ingestion of microplastics
has been described in marine organisms, whereby particles may enter the food chain …

Microplastics (MPs) have been detected in all environmental locations, including the
atmosphere. However, few studies have investigated the presence of airborne MPs in the …

Microplastics have aroused increasing concern as they pose threats to aquatic species as
well as human beings. They do not only contribute to accumulation of plastics in the …
