Source and Route of Microplastics in Terrestrial, Atmospheric, and Aquatic Environments, and Effects of Microplastics on Organisms [PDF]
Objectives Microplastics, known as pieces of polymer debris less than 5 mm, result from plastic particles originally manufactured to small size or fragmentation from larger plastic items. Due to the persistence, microplastics can remain and accumulate in

Microplastic Index—How to Predict Microplastics Formation?
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.

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
