ClearAddressing the current fettle of bioaccumulation of microplastics on the subsequent perspective of the aquatic ecosystem and health implications of commercial species: a review
This review examined evidence for microplastic bioaccumulation in aquatic animals globally, discussing risks to aquatic health, ecosystem function, and the blue economy from widespread plastic particle uptake. The review found bioaccumulation documented across multiple taxa and highlighted food safety implications for humans consuming aquatic species.
The Challenge of Microplastics in Aquatic Ecosystem: A Review of Current Consensus and Future Trends of the Effect on the Fish
This review synthesizes research on how microplastics affect aquatic ecosystems, covering ingestion by marine animals, trophic transfer up the food chain, and the chemicals that microplastics carry. The findings highlight that microplastic contamination is now widespread enough to threaten marine biodiversity and food security for populations that rely on seafood.
Microplastic in the Aquatic Ecosystem and Human Health Implications
This review examines the sources, distribution, and pathways of microplastics in aquatic ecosystems, summarizing current evidence on how MPs enter the food chain, accumulate in aquatic fauna, and pose risks to both ecosystem health and human health through seafood consumption.
Plastic Peril
This review examines the skyrocketing global plastic production and the resulting accumulation of microplastics that adversely affect terrestrial and aquatic organisms through bioaccumulation and biomagnification. The authors assess evidence for microplastic effects across trophic levels including in edible aquatic organisms, highlighting the food chain risks from plastic pollution.
Trophic Transfer and Accumulation of Microplastics in Freshwater Ecosystem: Risk to Food Security and Human Health
This review examined the trophic transfer and accumulation of microplastics through freshwater food chains, highlighting the risks to food security and human health as plastic particles biomagnify from lower to higher trophic levels.
Impact of Microplastics on AquaticOrganisms and Human Health: A Review
This review examines how microplastics from degraded plastic debris accumulate in aquatic environments, are ingested by organisms at all levels of the food chain, and may transfer to humans through seafood. The evidence warrants concern about microplastic contamination as an emerging public health issue.
Micro-Nano Plastics in Aquatic Environments: Associated Health Impacts and Mitigation Strategies
This review examines how micro- and nanoplastics in aquatic environments are biologically transferred up the food chain, covering the factors that influence particle bioavailability, accumulation in organisms, and trophic transfer — with implications for both aquatic ecosystem health and human dietary exposure.
Toxicological review of micro- and nano-plastics in aquatic environments: Risks to ecosystems, food web dynamics and human health.
This review synthesized evidence on the toxicological effects of micro- and nanoplastics in aquatic ecosystems, covering risks to individual organisms, disruptions to food web dynamics, and pathways through which plastic exposure poses risks to human health via seafood consumption.
Microplastic profusion in food and drinking water: are microplastics becoming a macroproblem?
This review examined the prevalence of microplastics in food and drinking water, assessing trophic transfer along the food web and evaluating whether microplastic contamination in human dietary sources constitutes a growing public health concern.
The Effects of Microplastics on the Human Food Chain and Freshwater Ecosystem
This review examines how microplastic pollution affects freshwater ecosystems and the human food chain, tracing the transfer of MPs from contaminated water through aquatic organisms to human consumers and evaluating the cumulative health risks of dietary plastic exposure.
A global perspective on microplastic bioaccumulation in marine organisms
This systematic review examines microplastic contamination in marine organisms around the world, documenting how plastics of various sizes and types build up in seafood species. Since many of these species end up on our plates, the findings raise important questions about how much microplastic humans may be consuming through seafood.
The Impact of Microplastic Bioaccumulation on Marine Ecosystems
This review examined the bioaccumulation of microplastics in marine ecosystems, tracing MP uptake from zooplankton to fish to marine mammals and discussing the ecological disruptions caused by plastic accumulation across food webs. It called for integrated solutions addressing MP pollution at both the source and ecosystem levels.
Microplastics—A New Threat to Aquatic Food Safety?
This review article examines whether microplastics pose a new threat to the safety of aquatic food sources, noting that plastics have accumulated widely in marine environments and are ingested by organisms throughout the food chain. The authors assess potential risks from microplastic particles in seafood and the possibility of chemical contaminants being transferred from plastic to human consumers.
Exploring bioaccumulation patterns and ecological risks of microplastics in aquatic ecosystems
This review comprehensively examined microplastic bioaccumulation and ecological risk in aquatic ecosystems, covering sources, environmental pathways, and the risks microplastics pose to organisms across trophic levels in rivers, lakes, and marine environments.
Microplastic in freshwater ecosystem: bioaccumulation, trophic transfer, and biomagnification
This review synthesizes evidence on microplastic bioaccumulation and trophic transfer in freshwater ecosystems, finding that while ingestion by freshwater organisms is well-documented, biomagnification through food chains remains poorly understood and requires further investigation.
Microplastics and associated contaminants in the aquatic environment: A review on their ecotoxicological effects, trophic transfer, and potential impacts to human health
This review examines how microplastics and the chemical contaminants they carry move through aquatic food chains from small organisms up to larger predators. Researchers found that microplastics can transfer toxic additives and absorbed pollutants to organisms that ingest them, with potential implications for seafood safety and ultimately human health.

This review examines how plastic pollution, including microplastics, threatens aquatic ecosystem health, affecting fish, birds, and mammals through ingestion, entanglement, and chemical exposure. Researchers highlighted that our understanding of microplastic dynamics — their release, retention, accumulation, and transfer across ecosystems — remains limited. The study calls for more research into the long-term ecological consequences of microplastic contamination in aquatic environments.
