Evaluation of polystyrene nanoplastic removal from aquatic environments and antibacterial activity against various harmful bacteria using jellyfish extract
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers found that immune-response extract from moon jellyfish effectively captured polystyrene nanoplastics from water at removal rates up to nearly 90% and showed antibacterial activity against six harmful pathogens, though concentrations above 0.01 mg/mL may alter aquatic bacterial communities and require careful management.
Aggregation of positively charged polystyrene nanoplastics in soil–root systems
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers showed that positively charged polystyrene nanoplastics aggregate in the presence of plant root exudates and soil leachate while negatively charged nanoplastics remain stable and mobile, driven by organic acid adsorption onto nanoparticle surfaces. Understanding nanoplastic charge-dependent behavior in soil-root systems is crucial for assessing how nanoplastics are taken up by crops and may enter the human food supply.
