The Effects of Combined Ocean Acidification and Nanoplastic Exposures on the Embryonic Development of Antarctic Krill [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
In aquatic environments, plastic pollution occurs concomitantly with anthropogenic climate stressors such as ocean acidification. Within the Southern Ocean, Antarctic krill (Euphausia Superba) support many marine predators and play a key role in the ...

Nanoplastic incorporation into an organismal skeleton

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Studies on the effects of global marine plastic pollution have largely focused on physiological responses of few organism groups (e.g., corals, fishes).

Imaging and identification of single nanoplastic particles and agglomerates [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Pollution by nanoplastic is a growing environmental and health concern. Currently the extent of nanoplastic in the environment can only be cumbersomely and indirectly estimated but not measured. To be able to quantify the extent of the problem, detection

A new occupational and environmental hazard – nanoplastic [PDF]

open access: yesMedycyna Pracy, 2020
Problems arising from the accumulation of plastic waste in the environment have become global. Appeals to stop the usage of disposable drinking straws or plastic cutlery did not come out without reason – 320 million tons of plastic products are produced ...

Crustacean nanochitosan-based bioremediation of nanoplastic-polluted aquatic habitat: A review pursuant to SDG 6 [PDF]

open access: yesScientific African, 2023
Microplastic and nanoplastic pollution is a growing environmental concern with potentially adverse effects on ecosystems and human health. The development of effective and sustainable methods for the removal of micro-/nanoplastics from water sources is ...

Micro/nanoplastics: a potential threat to crops [PDF]

open access: yesVegetable Research, 2023
The distribution of micro/nanoplastics in soil and water environments is a potential agricultural threat. Since micro/nanoplastics are a new and highly concerning contaminant, in recent years research on micro/nanoplastics has rapidly increased. Here, we

Maternal Polystyrene Nanoplastic Exposure Impairs Cardiac Development in Mouse Offspring and Identifies Lactation as a Sensitive Window in Males. [PDF]

open access: yesBiology (Basel)
Maternal exposure to nanoplastics is a growing concern, but its effects on offspring cardiac development and the relative importance of prenatal and lactational exposure remain unclear.

Nanoplastic transport in aqueous environments: The role of chemo-electric properties and hydrodynamic forces for nanoplastic-mineral interaction. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
The fate and transport characteristics of nanoplastic (NP) through different environmental systems is largely governed by physio-chemical processes and their specific interaction with environmental constituents (i.e., minerals, dissolved species ...

Scoping intergenerational effects of nanoplastic on the lipid reserves of Antarctic krill embryos [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) plays a central role in the Antarctic marine food web and biogeochemical cycles and has been identified as a species that is potentially vulnerable to plastic pollution.
