Summary

Researchers examined the long-term fate of micro- and nanoplastics in soil, finding that these persistent particles accumulate over time and can disrupt soil ecosystems, potentially affecting plant growth, soil organisms, and the broader food chain through sustained environmental exposure.

Micro/nanoplastics are new global pollutants that have drawn major attention globally due to their potential to damage the ecosystem upon their persistence and accumulation. Micro/nanoplastics (MNPs) are inextricably released into the environment by terrestrial and...
