This Turkish review assessed the risk profiles of microplastics to aquatic organisms, summarizing evidence on how different types, sizes, and concentrations of microplastics affect aquatic life. The paper highlights the need for regulatory frameworks to protect aquatic ecosystems from this widespread pollutant.

Bu derlemenin amacı, sucul çevredeki mikroplastiklerin (MP) bazı deniz organizmaları ve insan sağlığı üzerine sebep olduğu sağlık risklerinin değerlendirilmesidir. Mikroplastikler deniz ortamlarında bulunan küçük plastik parçacıklardır. Ayrıca ağır metaller, pestisitler ve çevresel kirleticiler de dahil olmak üzere ortamdan çeşitli kimyasal kalıntıları absorbe edebilirler. Bu derleme çalışmasında plastik ve mikroplastiklerin bazı sucul organizmalar ve sucul ekosistem üzerindeki olumsuz etkileri özetlenmiştir.
