A Smart Environment Monitoring System for Mitigating Marine Littering
AI summary Read the abstract
This study analyzed microplastic contamination in the gills, liver, and muscle tissue of commercially important fish species from a coastal fishery, finding polymer particles primarily concentrated in gill and liver tissues. Polyester and polyethylene were the predominant polymer types identified by FTIR spectroscopy, consistent with sources in the broader coastal environment.
Environmental monitoring and management have received remarkable attention in recent years, since climate change constitutes a ubiquitous issue that needs to be tackled, as soon as possible. Especially, marine plastic pollution has been widely

Detection and Mitigation of Microplastics (MPs) in Environment and Applications on Legal Regulations–A Review
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers reviewed the sources, detection methods, and mitigation strategies for microplastic pollution, noting that everyday products from toothpaste to car tires release particles into air, water, and soil. The review warns that without rapid legal restrictions and public awareness, microplastics will continue driving new health problems, genetic diseases, and environmental degradation.
Mitigation of the Plastic Pollution in the Marine Environment to Conserve the Marine Biota: An Overview
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers reviewed how plastics — the dominant form of marine solid waste — break down into microplastics and nanoplastics under environmental forces, threatening marine biodiversity. The overview highlights mitigation strategies needed to reduce ongoing plastic inputs before damage to ocean ecosystems becomes irreversible.
