Microplastics contamination in food products: Occurrence, analytical techniques and potential impacts on human health

Current Research in Biotechnology, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 7, P. 100190 - 100190

Chemically, microplastics (MPs) are synthetic materials composed of plastic monomers and additives vary in size from 0.1 to 5000 μm. Due their chemical stability the widespread use plastics for various purposes, MP contamination environment has increased dramatically, leading daily consumer products as well. Although previous studies have reported environmental impacts MPs, only a few highlighted occurrence MPs food possible effects on human health. Recent investigations identified particles drinking water other beverages, seafood, plant products, salt, sugar, honey, raising an alarm over safety quality these items. Ingestion, inhalation, dermal contact such goods common routes through which may enter body can several deleterious health including oxidative stress, inflammation, immunotoxicity, risk neoplasia, cellular metabolism impairment, neurotoxicity, gut microbiome dysbiosis, disruption reproductive system among others. A collective approach employing source control, recycling, biodegradable plastics, strengthening legislation, bioremediation could be promising sustainable solution control pollution. The key challenge appears standarize detection methods along with reducing well environment. Therefore, this review focuses current analysis, potential impacts, strategies mitigate It also adds novel findings, knowledge gaps, recommendations that guide future research field.
