A review of the impact of micro‐ and nanoplastics on female reproduction: What we know and gaps in knowledge

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Micro‐and nanoplastics (MNPs) are breakdown products of plastics, and humans are exposed to these particles through air, water, food, and soil. There is a growing concern that human exposure to MNPs negatively impacts health. In this review we will discuss the potential health impact of MNPs on ovarian function and the hypothalamic–pituitary ...

Research Progress of Microplastics

Engineering and Technology Journal
Microplastics ( MPs ) pollution has become a global persistent pollution problem and endangers human health, so it has received widespread attention from the public. Therefore, it is of great significance to find accurate and efficient microplastic pollution detection methods in the field of environmental protection.

Distinctive metabolic disturbances associated with redox homeostasis, nervous and hormonal functions during gut microbial enrichment upon polystyrene microplastic exposure

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Microplastic‐induced gut microbial enrichment was dominated by bacteria within Eubacteriales, correlated with the virome, and accompanied by colitis. The polyamine synthetic pathway was activated to maintain glutathionylspermidine homeostasis, concurrent with decreases in pathways involved in the production of energy and reactive oxygen species under ...

Extracting Superficial Scattering by Q‐Sensing Technique

Journal of Biophotonics, EarlyView.
Exploring the use of polarized light by Q‐sensing technique to enhance sensing of abnormal situations in tissue. By isolating superficial scattering from deeper layers, identifying areas of depolarization is possible, allowing the detection of tissue abnormalities and extraction of superficial scattering. The experimental results are supported by Monte
