Microplastic and Nanoplastic: A Threat to the Environment
Summary
Researchers reviewed the formation, distribution, and health threats posed by microplastics and nanoplastics in marine and human environments, tracing their origins to the fragmentation and direct release of plastic products. The paper outlines the compounding danger of nanoscale particles, which can penetrate biological barriers that larger fragments cannot.
Microplastics (MPs) and nanoplastics (NPs) have become significant environmental concerns due to their potential adverse effects on marine and human health. These microplastic particles are created by discontinuing more considerable plastic waste or delivered...
