Summary

This research addresses micro- and nanoplastic pollution, pointing to a fundamental knowledge gap in nanoplastic science because of insufficient analytical tools for detecting particles below 1 micrometer. Nanoplastics are considered more hazardous than larger microplastics because they can more easily enter cells.

Micro-nano plastics originating from the prevalent usage of plastics have raised increasingly alarming concerns worldwide. However, there remains a fundamental knowledge gap in nanoplastics because of the lack of effective analytical ...Plastics are now omnipresent in our daily lives. The existence of microplastics (1 µm to 5 mm in length) and possibly even nanoplastics (<1 μm) has recently raised health concerns. In particular, nanoplastics are believed to be more toxic since their ...
