Microplastic (MP) pollution poses a global threat to urban and rural environments can have negative effects on range of organisms. Mosquito larvae often breed in water contaminated with MPs, given their important role as disease vectors, understanding the larval exposure MPs is critical for potential impact life history traits subsequent methods control. Here, we exposed first instar Anopheles gambiae s.s. environmentally realistic concentrations PET microplastics (1.0–7.5 μm) sub-lethal dose insecticide mixed microplastics, quantified survival, development, susceptibility over six generations. Adult mosquitoes from these treatments were subsequently tested resistance. Exposure decreased survival rates compared control; however, generations exposure, significantly increased. Similarly, there was higher rate those just insecticide, increased further For adult mosquito tests, knockdown times (KDTs) indicated some level tolerance when had been previously insecticides. This study demonstrating selection after consecutive exposures varying MPs. Therefore, field-scale studies are now urgently required quantify whether insecticides less effective at controlling breeding sites commonly polluted

Pharmaceuticals in Malaysia’s groundwater are a growing concern as they can potentially affect the environment and human health negatively. found abundance from sources such septic tanks, leachates landfills, wastewater effluents pharmaceutical-related industries, medical institutions, treatment plants, households, agriculture runoff leakage of effluent wastes Malaysia. Pharmaceutical contaminant usually travels through advection dispersion waterways or soil into groundwater. The mathematical model advection-dispersion equation enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) analysed for prediction movement concentration pharmaceuticals. Furthermore, evolution pharmaceuticals environment, living organisms is assessed. have their way food chain exhibit toxicity hazard to aquatic ecosystems. However, humans still not yet much be researched although strong evidence possible negative consequences. Moreover, remediation technologies activated carbon adsorption, sludge, anaerobic advanced oxidation process discussed mitigation contamination.
