Correction to “Filling the Gap: A Comprehensive Freshwater Network to Map Microplastics across Ecological Gradients in Argentina”
AI summary Read the abstract
This notice is simply a correction to fix an author affiliation listed incorrectly in a previous paper about tracking microplastics in Argentina's freshwater systems, it doesn't contain new scientific findings. The original research aimed to build a monitoring network to map plastic pollution across rivers and lakes, which matters because understanding where microplastics accumulate in freshwater helps scientists assess potential risks to drinking water and the food chain.
A Critical Review on Biological Impacts, Ecotoxicity, and Health Risks Associated with Microplastics
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers review the biological impacts and ecotoxicity of microplastics across ecosystems, documenting how these persistent particles transfer through trophic levels, disrupt feeding behavior, obstruct digestive tracts, impair respiratory and reproductive systems in aquatic species, and have been detected in human placentas, while calling for stronger regulations to limit environmental accumulation.
