Jordan Journal of Biological Sciences 2021
Marek Nechvátal, Karel Klouda

Summary

This article summarizes current knowledge on the influence of micro and nanoplastics on environmental components and organisms. The review focuses on complex toxic effects and new ecotoxicological information on interactions between plastic particles and living organisms across different taxonomic groups.

The article summarizes the knowledge about the influence of micro and nanoplastics on environmental components. Attention is paid to a complex set of the main toxic effects of plastic particles on selected groups of environmental organisms, especially new information and interactions with living organisms that have the potential to cause ecotoxicological damage.
