Researchers are focused on the global issue of plastic contamination in agricultural soils
because of the known effects of plastics on the soil ecosystem. Previous reviews did not pay …

Plastics have become an integral component in agricultural production as mulch films, nets,
storage bins and in many other applications, but their widespread use has led to the …

Tire wear particle (TWP)-derived compounds may be of high concern to consumers when
released in the root zone of edible plants. We exposed lettuce plants to the TWP-derived …

Plastics are an integral but largely inconspicuous part of daily human routines. The present
review paper uses cross-disciplinary scientific literature to examine and assess the possible …

Due to the increasing concerns on global ecosystems and human health, the environmental
risks posed by microplastics (MPs) and nanoplastics (NPs) have become an important topic …

N-(1, 3-Dimethylbutyl)-N′-phenyl-p-phenylenediamine (6PPD) is a chemical added to tires
to prevent their oxidative degradation. 6PPD is highly reactive with ozone and oxygen …

Microplastics (MPs) and heavy metals (HMs) in soil contamination are considered an
emerging global problem that poses environmental and health risks. However, their …

Microplastic (MPs) contamination in groundwater has received massive attention since
plastic waste has been released directly into the environment. This study investigates MPs …

Microplastics (MPs) pose a global concern due to their ubiquitous distribution. Once in the
environment, they are subject to aging, which changes their chemical-physical properties …

Soils play a very important role in ecosystems sustainability, either natural or agricultural
ones, serving as an essential support for living organisms of different kinds. However, in the …
