Summary

Researchers investigated microplastic particle presence and distribution in a karst aquifer near Zvenigorod, Russia, finding that single-use plastics and inadequate waste management are contributing to groundwater MP contamination even in this relatively protected geological setting.

The growing production of plastic products, the majority (about 54%) of which are single-use goods, and the lack of effective plastic waste management have led to the global problem of environmental contamination by polymers. Micro- (
