Summary

Researchers reviewed how embryonic and early-life exposure to microplastics and nanoplastics disrupts reproductive development and aquatic organism physiology, highlighting particular concern for developmental toxicity given the vulnerability of embryos to oxidative stress and endocrine disruption caused by plastic particles.
