Nanoplastics: Methods, Exposure and Effects on Domestic, Farm and Wild Animals
ABSTRACT Nanoplastics (NPs) are synthetic polymer particles ranging in size from 1 nm to 1 μm that have been identified as a major concern for ecosystems and organisms due to their plethora of negative effects. The aim of this review is to provide a comprehensive overview of the knowledge relating to exposure and effects of NPs in domestic (i.e., farm ...

ABSTRACT Vitamin B12 (cobalamin, Cbl) is an essential micronutrient for DNA synthesis and neurological development. Its deficiency in infants, although infrequent in developed countries, can cause megaloblastic anemia, psychomotor delay, and neurological damage that may become irreversible if not treated early.
