Microplastic (MP) contamination has become a serious environmental concern that affects terrestrial environments, aquatic ecosystems, and human health. The current study assesses the presence, abundance, morphology of MPs present in surface water Rohtak district, Haryana, India, which is rapidly undergoing industrialization. While morphological studies were conducted through stereo microscopy field emission-scanning electron (FE-SEM), elemental composition polymers was analyzed attenuated total reflectance-Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR). results revealed significantly contaminated by polyethylene, polypropylene, polystyrene. Moreover, abundance found to be 16-28 particles/L with an average value 23 particles/L. Most had fibrous specifics being, fibers (43.9%), fragments (23.7%), films (17%), pellets (15.4%). exhibited size range 0.61-4.87 mm, measured at 2.03 ± 0.04 mm. Also, MP pollution load index values for bodies below 10, indicating low risk category. Though currently designated as "low risk," it important mitigation strategies brought over this juncture further prevent deterioration quality water. Thus, not only intends bring forth impact activities, industrial waste, open waste dumping, inadequate municipal management practices on increasing concentration but also highlights sustainable alternatives address emerging pollutant urban systems. For prevention, implementation stringent regulations on-site plastic segregation critical component preventing disposal bodies. RESEARCH HIGHLIGHTS: particles/L, district fall into hazard categories less than 10. overall water, across all five areas, based color order: white/transparent (39.1%), black (15%), gray (9.1%), green (8.7%), blue (7.8%), red orange (6.3%), yellow (6.1%). dominant polyethylene (PE) (42%) polypropylene (41%) determined FTIR spectroscopy.

Microplastic pollution poses a significant threat to environmental and human health. This study investigated the toxicological genotoxic effects of various microplastic types (polystyrene (PS), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polypropylene (PP), (PE)) on plant animal models. Aqueous extracts microplastics in different size fractions (0.175 mm, 0.3 1 2 3 mm) were evaluated for their impact barley seed germination cell division. Results indicated that smaller exhibited higher toxicity, particularly PP PE. Significant reductions rates root growth observed, along with increased chromosomal aberrations cells. Furthermore, migration formaldehyde, known toxicant, from exceeded permissible limits. These findings highlight potential risks associated pollution, drinking water sources. Future research should focus long-term health impacts exposure, including carcinogenic potential, explore synergistic other pollutants. Stricter regulations advancements treatment technologies are urgently needed mitigate these risks.
