Emergence of Microplastics in the Aquatic Ecosystems: Sources and Their Characteristics

AI summary Read the abstract

Researchers reviewed the sources, physical and chemical characteristics, and environmental distribution of microplastics in aquatic ecosystems, covering both primary particles from industrial and personal care products and secondary particles generated through fragmentation of larger plastics. Understanding the diversity of particle sources and properties is foundational for modeling exposure pathways and predicting which ecosystems and human populations face the greatest contamination risk.
