Given the global abundance and environmental persistence, exposure of humans (aquatic) animals to micro- nanoplastics is unavoidable. Current evidence indicates that can be taken up by aquatic organism as well mammals. Upon uptake, reach brain, although there limited information regarding number particles reaches brain potential neurotoxicity these small plastic particles.Earlier studies indicated metal metal-oxide nanoparticles, such gold (Au) titanium dioxide (TiO2) also exert a range neurotoxic effects. similarities between chemically inert metal(oxide) nanoparticles particles, this review aims provide an overview reported effects in different species vitro. The combined data, fragmentary, indicate induce oxidative stress, potentially resulting cellular damage increased vulnerability develop neuronal disorders. Additionally, result inhibition acetylcholinesterase activity altered neurotransmitter levels, which both may contribute behavioral changes.Currently, systematic comparison particle types, shapes, sizes at concentrations durations lacking, but urgently needed further elucidate hazard risk nanoplastics.

Plastic is one of the most commonly produced and used materials in world due to its outstanding features. However, worldwide use plastics poor waste management have led negative impacts on ecosystems. degradation environment leads generation plastic particles with a size <5 mm, which are defined as microplastics (MPs). These represent global concern their wide dispersion water environments unclear potential ecotoxicological effects. Different studies been performed aim evaluating presence MPs marine environment. freshwater systems still poorly investigated, making data retrieval difficult task. The purpose this review identify main aspects concerning pollution sources lakes rivers, focus sediments site accumulation habitat benthic organisms, key components food webs play fundamental role energy/contaminant transfer processes, but considered. Through review, fate analysed, focused fauna exposed, frequently sampling analysis strategies reported, future trends field proposed.
