Comparison of Microplastics between Lung Tissues and Intestinal Contents in Finless Porpoises (Neophocaena asiaeorientalis)

Environmental Science & Technology, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: unknown

Published: March 25, 2025

Microplastics are ubiquitous environmental pollutants in terrestrial, marine, and atmospheric ecosystems. Plastic inputs into the atmosphere occur through weathering or abrasion, dispersing microplastics globally, which can enter animals' respiratory systems inhalation. We analyzed lung tissues for first time intestinal contents of 11 dead finless porpoises (Neophocaena asiaeorientalis) to assess intake from prey sources. The contained average concentrations 0.14 ± 0.11 MPs/g 0.35 0.36 MPs/g, respectively. found were similar physical characteristics (e.g., fragment shape, transparent white color, size <100 μm). On other hand, they differed polymer types, with a higher proportion epoxy-type lungs. Epoxy is highly hazardous according hazard index, present study, had plastic index than contents. Hence, system more vulnerable microplastic pollution sources digestive water food intake. These findings underscore growing threat airborne lung-breathing animals including marine mammals.

Plastic Smell: A Review of the Hidden Threat of Airborne Micro and Nanoplastics to Human Health and the Environment

Toxics, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 13(5), P. 387 - 387

Published: May 12, 2025

Airborne micro and nanoplastics (MPs/NPs) are a growing issue due to their possible health hazards. Since the current bibliography lacks thorough evaluation, this review examines sources, environmental dynamics, impacts of airborne MPs/NPs. Through atmospheric transport processes, these neo-pollutants spread around world after being released, potentially settling in urban remote areas. This is first compare active passive aerosol sampling methods, microscopy, thermochemical, spectroscopy analytical techniques, with focus on limitations precisely quantifying micro-nanoscale plastic particles. It also draws attention potential toxicological effects inhaled MPs/NPs, which can lead oxidative stress, respiratory inflammation, other negative consequences. concludes by examining how MPs/NPs may worsen ecological impact serving as carriers hazardous chemicals microbial pollutants. Despite awareness, there still many unanswered questions, especially about long-term exposure conditions affect The aim was bring MP/NP promote development advanced monitoring systems, new multidisciplinary scientific field for study novel pollutants, global regulatory frameworks.
