Background: Plastics have conveyed great benefits to humanity and made possible some of
the most significant advances of modern civilization in fields as diverse as medicine …

Over the years, the vaste expansion of plastic manufacturing has dramatically increased the
environmental impact of microplastics [MPs] and nanoplastics [NPs], making them a threat to …

Recent studies have highlighted the importance of the atmosphere in the long-range
transport of microplastic fibres. However, their dry deposition in the atmosphere is not fully …

Despite the increasing prevalence of atmospheric nanoplastics (NPs), there remains limited
research on their phytotoxicity, foliar absorption, and translocation in plants. In this study, we …

Airborne microplastics (MPs) can undergo long range transport to remote regions. Yet there
is a large knowledge gap regarding the occurrence and burden of MPs in the marine …

The presence of microplastics and nanoplastics (MnPs) in the atmosphere and their
transport on a global scale has previously been demonstrated. However, little is known …

Microplastics (MPs) are ubiquitous in global ecosystems and may pose a potential risk to
human health. However, critical information on MP exposure and risk to female reproductive …

Plastic pollution is currently one of the environmental pollution issues of global concern, and
microplastics (plastics with a size≤ 5 mm) have also attracted much attention due to their …

Microplastic pollution is occurring in most ecosystem, yet their presence in high altitude
clouds and their influence on cloud formation and climate change are poorly known. Here …

The increasing global attention on micro (nano) plastics (MNPs) is a result of their ubiquity in
the water, air, soil, and biosphere, exposing humans to MNPs on a daily basis and …
