Plastics can linger for years in various environmental compartments after being discarded
and exposed to the physical and chemical influences that dismantle their plastic structure to …

Abstract Microplastics (MPs) and nanoplastic (NPs) pollution is a global concern due to the
massive use of plastic products. Although there have been many studies on the treatments …

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 …

Highlights What are the main findings? For the first time, microplastics were detected and
localized by electron microscopy in human placentas. The presence of microplastics was …

Microplastic contamination has rapidly become a serious environmental issue, threatening
marine ecosystems and human health. This review aims to not only understand the …

Abstract Microplastic/nanoplastics (MPs/NPs) contamination is not only emerging threat to
the agricultural system but also constitute global hazard to the environment worldwide …

Abstract Microplastics (MPs) and nanoplastics (NPs) are ubiquitous and intractable in urban
waters. Compared with MPs, the smaller NPs have shown distinct physicochemical features …

Microplastics (MPs) are small plastic debris (< 5 mm) that result from the fragmentation of
plastic due to physical and physiochemical processes. MPs are emerging pollutants that …

The increase of micro-and nano-plastics (MNPs) in aquatic environments has become a
significant concern due to their potential toxicological effects on ecosystems, food web …

Recently, microplastics (MPs) and nanoplastics (NPs) contamination is a worldwide problem
owing to the immense usage of plastic commodities. Thus, the environmental risks by MPs …
