Summary

Researchers review current knowledge on micro- and nanoplastic distribution across environmental compartments, documenting ingestion and inhalation pathways through food chains and evaluating trends in contamination levels in agricultural, aquatic, and human biological systems.

Globally, abiotic and biotic components are presently under the greatest threat due to an alarming increase of micro-nanoplastics (MNPs) in the environment. MNPs are ingested, inhaled, or absorbed through the food chain and reach the agroecosystem, animals, and human...
