The Impact of Microplastics on the Environment and Human (Living) Health
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers review how everyday plastic products release harmful chemicals such as bisphenol A, phthalates, and heavy metals into the environment, examining the broad pathways through which microplastics and their associated toxins affect both environmental quality and human health.
In countless products we use every day, such as glasses, plastic bottles, forks, spoons, containers made of artificial foam, storage containers, toys, stationery products; It contains substances such as bisphenol A, phthalates, azo dyes, heavy metals, and penetrates...

Impact of Microplastics in Human Health
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers reviewed how microplastics — the tiny fragments that form as plastics break down — are accumulating in human tissues and triggering inflammation, hormonal disruption, and other health effects. Because plastics are inescapable in modern life, understanding these pathways is critical for setting safe exposure limits and informing policy.
Impact of Microplastics in Human Health
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers examined how the global proliferation of plastic products has led to pervasive microplastic pollution through slow degradation of discarded materials, with direct consequences for human health. The paper traces the pathway from plastic convenience to microscale contamination and the biological impacts on the human body.
