The increasing demand for plastic in our daily lives has led to global pollution. improper disposal of resulted a massive amount atmospheric microplastics (MPs), which further the production nanoplastics (NPs). Because its intimate relationship with environment and human health, microplastic nanoplastic contamination is becoming problem. are microscopic light, they may penetrate deep into lungs. Despite several studies demonstrating abundance air, potential risks remain unknown. small size, characterization presented significant challenges. This paper describes sampling procedures nanoplastics. study also examines numerous harmful effects particles on health other species. There void research toxicity airborne upon inhalation, toxicological future. Further needed determine influence pulmonary diseases.

Micro-and nanoplastics (MNPs) are particles that smaller than a millimeter in size and have infiltrated both terrestrial aquatic ecosystems. MNPs pollution become widespread problem causing severe adverse effects on human health the environment worldwide. Once environment, these polymers not easily degradable due to their recalcitrant nature small consumed by organisms transported through food chain, at great risk health. Substantial evidence demonstrates negative of residues organisms' reproductive developmental defects. Similarly, soil flora, quality, plant height been severely impacted presence agroecosystem. This is evident inhibition water absorption blocked seed pores, delayed germination, dramatic decline transpiration rates growth roots, inevitably leading drop biomass crop production, posing an overall threat global security. In this review, we present impact agroecosystems around globe, including sources, occurrence, distribution, transport, ultimate fate. We recommend using bio-based plastics, eco-friendly remediation strategies, reformed agricultural practices, non-single-use synthetic plastic legislation, increased waste disposal awareness campaigns as effective tools mitigate problem.

Due to their size, flexibility, biocompatibility, large surface area, and variable functionality nanoparticles have enormous industrial, agricultural, pharmaceutical biotechnological applications. This has led widespread use in various fields. The advancement of knowledge this field research altered our way life from medicine agriculture. One the rungs revolution, which somewhat reduced harmful consequences, is nanotechnology. A helpful ingredient for plants, silicon (Si), well-known its preventive properties under adverse environmental conditions. Several studies shown how biogenic silica helps plants recover biotic abiotic stressors. majority demonstrated benefits silicon-based (Si-NPs) plant growth development, particularly stressful environments. In order minimize release brine, heavy metals, radioactive chemicals into water, remove non-metals, components, purify also been used remediation. Potentially toxic elements (PTEs) become a huge threat food security through negative impact on agroecosystem. Si-NPs potentials PTEs agroecosystem promote via promotion development. review, we outlined sources ecotoxicological consequences agroecosystems. mitigating were extensively discussed other applications agriculture foster highlighted.
