The adsorption determination of organophosphate pesticides on microplastics in aquatic and juice samples using a Zr-COF-based magnetic solid-phase extraction
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers established a zirconium-covalent organic framework (Zr-COF)-based magnetic solid-phase extraction method to study the adsorption of organophosphate pesticides onto microplastic surfaces in aquatic and juice samples, finding that π-π interactions and hydrogen bonding govern the adsorption behaviour.
Sorption of Pollutants on Microplastics
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers reviewed how microplastics act as sponges for environmental pollutants like pesticides, heavy metals, and pharmaceuticals, absorbing and concentrating these chemicals in ways that can amplify their toxicity when ingested by marine animals — and potentially by humans.
Sorption of Pollutants on Microplastics
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers reviewed how microplastics act as sponges for other pollutants in the environment, absorbing toxic chemicals like pesticides and heavy metals and potentially carrying them into the food chain, compounding the health risks of plastic contamination beyond the particles themselves.
Effect of gastric fluid on adsorption and desorption of endocrine disrupting chemicals on microplastics
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers found that simulated stomach fluid causes microplastics to release significantly more hormone-disrupting estrogen chemicals than saltwater alone, suggesting that microplastics ingested by marine animals or humans may deliver a higher internal dose of endocrine disruptors than previously estimated.
Plastic Pollution Amplified: Adsorption of Contaminants onto Microplastic Surfaces
AI summary Read the abstract
This review examined how microplastics act as vectors for co-pollutants — including heavy metals, persistent organic pollutants, and pharmaceuticals — adsorbing these substances onto their surfaces and potentially delivering concentrated doses to organisms that ingest them. The "Trojan horse" effect of microplastics as contaminant carriers significantly amplifies their toxicological risk beyond the particles themselves, with direct implications for human health via contaminated seafood and drinking water.
