Microplastics and Microbe Interaction on Human and Animal Health
Summary
Researchers reviewing microplastic-microbe interactions found that microplastics alter microbial community composition in gut and environmental settings, potentially disrupting beneficial bacteria and facilitating pathogen spread, with implications for both human and animal health.
Owing to their widespread occurrence in many ecosystems and possible effects on both biotic and abiotic components, microplastics have become an urgent environmental concern. An overview of microplastic–bacteria interactions, potential human and animal health...
