Kinetics of polystyrene nanoplastic deposition on SiO and AlO surfaces: Ionic strength effects

open access: yesScience Progress, 2023
Nanoplastic pollution is an emerging environmental threat to the critical zone. The transport of nanoplastic particles in subsurface environments can be determined mainly by soil minerals because they provide surfaces that interact with nanoplastic ...

A Nanoplastic Sampling and Enrichment Approach by Continuous Flow Centrifugation

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science, 2020
Substantial efforts have been undertaken to isolate and characterize plastic contaminants in different sample matrices in the last years as the ubiquitous presence of particulate plastic in the environment has become evident.

Atmospheric microplastic and nanoplastic: The toxicological paradigm on the cellular system

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2023
The increasing demand for plastic in our daily lives has led to global plastic pollution. The improper disposal of plastic has resulted in a massive amount of atmospheric microplastics (MPs), which has further resulted in the production of atmospheric ...

Micro-Nano Plastic in the Aquatic Environment: Methodological Problems and Challenges

open access: yesAnimals, 2022
Microplastic research has become a buzz word. It is seen as one of the most pressing issues of Anthropocene contamination. There is certainly no doubt about the ubiquitous presence of microplastic (MP) in almost all environmental matrices.

Nanoplastic Sizes and Numbers: Quantification by Single Particle Tracking [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Plastic particles have been found almost everywhere in the environment, in oceans, terrestrial water bodies, sediments and air. The extend of this unwanted contamination is difficult to fully capture.

From salinity to nanoplastics: redefining safe yield in strip-island aquifers under emerging contaminant threats [PDF]

open access: yesHydrology and Earth System Sciences
Nanoplastic contamination is emerging as a significant threat to groundwater security on small islands, where freshwater lenses serve as primary water supplies. Existing groundwater management frameworks are largely based on salinity intrusion and do not

Assessment of nanoplastic extraction from natural samples for quantification purposes

open access: yes, 2023
International audienceHighlights: • Evaluation of nanoplastic retention capacities during membrane filtration. • Polystyrene nanospheres, selected as model nanoplastics, were used to monitor the losses.

Evaluation of In Vitro Genotoxicity of Polystyrene Nanoparticles in Human Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells

open access: yesToxics, 2023
According to the trade association PlasticEurope, global plastics production increased to 390.7 million tons in 2021. Unfortunately, the majority of produced plastics eventually end up as waste in the ocean or on land.
