Review on Microplastics as an Emerging Pollutant in Ecosystem and Its Impact: Integrated Approaches of Microplastic Biodegradation

AI summary Read the abstract

This review examines microplastics as a pervasive and slow-degrading pollutant in soils and waterways, exploring biodegradation approaches as a potential solution to break them down. Because microplastics can absorb other toxic chemicals and enter food chains, finding ways to eliminate them from the environment is critical for protecting both ecosystems and human health.
