Microplastic materials in the environment: Problem and strategical solutions
Plastics are widely used in our daily life; however, poor management and disposal result in
their ubiquity throughout the biosphere. Increased accumulation of microplastic (MP) or even …

Environmental source, fate, and toxicity of microplastics
Microplastics are small plastic pieces with sizes less than 5 mm. Due to their widespread
distribution in different environmental compartments, food, and drinking water, microplastics …

The plastisphere of biodegradable and conventional microplastics from residues exhibit distinct microbial structure, network and function in plastic-mulching farmland
The inhomogeneity of plastisphere and soil may result in different microbial communities,
thus potentially affecting soil functions. Biodegradable plastics offer an alternative to …
