Characterizing microplastic hazards: which concentration metrics and particle characteristics are most informative for understanding toxicity in aquatic organisms?

Microplastics and Nanoplastics, Journal Year: 2022, Volume and Issue: 2(1)

Published: Aug. 6, 2022

Abstract There is definitive evidence that microplastics, defined as plastic particles less than 5 mm in size, are ubiquitous the environment and can cause harm to aquatic organisms. These findings have prompted legislators environmental regulators seek out strategies for managing risk. However, microplastics also an incredibly diverse contaminant suite, comprising a complex mixture of physical chemical characteristics (e.g., sizes, morphologies, polymer types, additives, sorbed chemicals, impurities), making it challenging identify which particle might influence associated hazards life. In addition, there lack consensus on how microplastic concentrations should be reported. This not only makes difficult compare across studies, but begs question concentration metric may most informative hazard characterization. Thus, international panel experts was convened 1) metrics mass or count per unit volume mass) development health-based thresholds risk assessment 2) best inform toxicological concerns. Based existing knowledge, recommended toxicity tests calculated from both at minimum, though ideally researchers report additional metrics, such surface area, more specific mechanisms. Regarding characteristics, sufficient conclude size critical determinant outcomes, particularly mechanisms food dilution tissue translocation .
