Özlem Tunç Dede
Summary
Researchers reviewed the exposure routes, uptake mechanisms, and accumulation pathways of microplastics in the human body, concluding that the ubiquitous presence of these particles warrants urgent investigation into their long-term ecological and health consequences.
Models
Microplastics are ubiquitous, universal environmental pollutants to which humans are inevitably exposed. Given their prevalence, long-term impacts on ecology and health from these particles require urgent investigation. There is an increasing total world plastic...
