Microplastic Index—How to Predict Microplastics Formation?
Polymers, 2023 The presence of microplastics in environmental compartments is generally recognized as a (potential) health risk. Many papers have been published on the abundance of microplastics at various locations around the globe, but only limited knowledge is available on possible mitigation routes.

Microplastics in the Ocean [PDF]
Archives of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology, 2015 Since their ubiquity in the ocean and marine organisms was first revealed, global concern about microplastics has grown considerably. The North Pacific Ocean and the adjacent marginal seas have high levels of microplastic contamination compared with the global average.

The ubiquitous presence of microplastics (MPs) in the environment and living organisms including humans has emerged as a significant global concern in the recent decades. Ambient MPs primarily originate from industrial activities and degradation of larger plastic debris, contributing to both coarse (PM10) and fine (PM2.5) particulate matter. Inhalation

Microplastic occurrence in fish species from the Iquitos region in Peru, western Amazonia [PDF]
Acta Amazonica, 2023 The contamination of aquatic environments by microplastic has become a major threat to biodiversity. The presence of microplastic is documented in the aquatic fauna of the oceans, but, in the Amazon basin, reports on microplastic occurrence are few.

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2022 The emerging issue of microplastic pollution of agricultural soils derives from the intensive utilization of plastic mulching film. Although surface runoff may transport microplastic off-site, infiltration may also facilitate microplastic transport from ...
