Adverse Effects of Micro- and Nanoplastics on Humans and the Environment
Summary
This editorial highlights the growing concern over nano- and microplastic pollution, which was further intensified during the COVID-19 pandemic due to the widespread disposal of personal protective equipment. Researchers discuss the adverse effects of these particles on both human health and the environment. The study underscores the need for continued research into the long-term impacts of micro- and nanoplastic exposure.
The pervasive pollution caused by nano- and microplastics (N/MPLs) is a pressing concern, and was exacerbated during the COVID-19 pandemic due to the substantial release of disposable Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) into the environment [...]
