Nanoplastic Settling Potential in Saline Environments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Nanoplastics are produced industrially for uses such as cosmetics and also generated by erosion of consumer plastic products. Nanoplastic properties are largely unstudied; understanding how these particles act will allow us to evaluate their ...

Nanoplastic Standards

open access: yes
Open questions about the potential effects of nanoplastic particles have driven researchers to a frontier of measurement science, where they seek answers without the full support of metrological standards.

Nanoplastic and Fungi (Aspergillus & Neurospora)

open access: yes, 2022
Synthetic plastics have been around for over 110 years. Since then variations of plastic have risen including, but not limited to, polyethylene terephthalate (PETE), polyethylene (PE), polystyrene (PS), and polypropylene (PP), for many different uses ...

Influence of nanoplastic surface charge on eco-corona formation, aggregation and toxicity to freshwater zooplankton

open access: yes, 2019
Concerns about possible environmental implications of nano- and micro-plastics are continuously raising. Hence, comprehensive understanding of their behaviour, bioaccumulation and toxicity potential is required.

Detection of nanoplastic by surface-enhanced Raman microscopy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Currently the extent of nanoplastic in the environment can only be estimated by extrapolation from the plastic waste that can be detected. To be able to quantify the whole extent of the problem, detection methods have to be developed that can also ...

Investigating the Pattern of Nanoplastic Deposition in Zebrafish

open access: yes, 2023
The worldwide production of plastics has constantly increased since their mass production started in the early 1940s. The reckless production of plastics polluted environment with nanoplastics, which are the plastics less than 1µm in size. It is easy for

Nanoplastic transfeer in european perch (Perca fluviatilis) foodweb [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Magistritöö Kalandus- ja rakendusökoloogia õppekavalAlates 2013 aastast on mikroplastiteemaliste uuringute arv oluliselt suurenenud, kuid jätkuvalt ei ole mere – ja ookeanite kõrval piisavalt uuritud nanoplasti liikumist magevee toiduahelates. Mikro- ja

Micro- and nanoplastic in the aquatic environment : from rivers to whales [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Although plastic has unquestionable benefits to modern society, its current use leads to pollution of the environment. Via direct disposal and degradation of larger plastic items, microplastic and nanoplastic particles reach the environment.

Geraniol modulation of oxidative stress caused by polyethylene terephthalate nanoplastics in HEK-293 cell line [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Preventive and Complementary Medicine
Background: The environmental degradation of plastics into micro- and nanoplastics (MNPs) poses a significant threat to human health. Polyethylene terephthalate nanoplastics (PET-NPs) are of particular concern due to their ability to induce intracellular
