Ecological and Health Risk Mediated by Micro(nano)plastics Aging Process: Perspectives and Challenges

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

Published: March 19, 2025

Aged micro(nano)plastics (MNPs) are normally the ultimate state of plastics in environment after aging. The changes physical and chemical characteristics aged MNPs significantly influence their environmental behavior by releasing additives, forming byproducts, adsorbing contaminants. However, a systematic review is lacking on effects ecological human health regarding increasing but scattered studies results. This Review first summarizes unique methods for quantifying aging degree. Then we focused potential impacts organisms, ecosystems, health, including "Trojan horse" under real conditions. Through combining meta-analysis analytic hierarchy process (AHP) model, demonstrated that, compared to virgin MNPs, would result biomass decrease oxidative stress increase organisms lead total N/P greenhouse gas emissions ecosystems while causing cell apoptosis, antioxidant system reaction, inflammation health. Within framework risk assessment, used quotient (RQ) physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBK) models as examples illustrate importance considering degree data acquisition, model building, formula evaluation. Given risks our urgent call more understand hazards real-world environments.

Potential impact and mechanism of aged polyethylene microplastics on nitrogen assimilation of Lactuca sativa L.

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 291, P. 117862 - 117862

Nitrogen (N) is the driving factor for crop yield and quality, more research needed on mechanisms of aged micro/nano plastics (MNPs) N assimilation in edible crops. In this study, pot experiments were conducted to investigate potential effect polyethylene (PE) microplastic addition (particle sizes: 20 0.1 µm, levels: 0.5 % [w/w], referred as control (CK), P20 (20-µm PE), AP20 P0.1 (0.1-µm AP0.1 PE) MNPs accumulation romaine lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.). The results showed that particle size accumulated decreased from root > stem leaf. Compared CK, fresh plant weight significantly by 40.84 51.62 AP0.1, respectively. indicated could affect growth via soil nutrient availability, 100-nm PE NH4+ TN concentrations 9.10 21.99 %, respectively, compared CK. was inhibited MNPs, which manifested soluble protein content under treatments being reduced 30.59 42.11 respectively (P < 0.01). Possible included inhibition carbon assimilation, photosynthesis, Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (Rubisco). toxic much greater than size, attributed carbonyl hydroxyl groups caused aging. Structural equation modeling nitrogen positively affected total (TN) (0.359), chlorophyll (0.665), Rubisco (0.441), (0.383), biomass (0.460), negatively phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (PEPC) (-0.325), sugar (-0.134). This study enhances current understandings effects microplastics findings vegetables may agricultural sustainability food safety.
