The widespread use of synthetic polymers since the mid-twentieth century has led to significant environmental pollution from microplastics (MPs). These MPs, which persist in ecosystems, can interact with various pollutants, including pesticides such as tebuconazole (TEB). subject paper investigates sorption behaviour TEB on different types MPs (polystyrene, polypropylene, and polyamide-6), focusing kinetics isotherms these interactions. role metal cations (Al, Cd, Cu, Pb, Zn) influencing is also investigated. Our findings highlight critical flaws that invalidate original article, mainly interpretation physicochemical properties, pKa speciation, importance considering ion complexation risk assessment. models used by authors, although widely used, are questioned for their accuracy representing real-world scenarios.

Effects of Microplastics on Selected Earthworm Species

Toxics, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 13(3), С. 201 - 201

Microplastics currently pose a serious threat to aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems. The high mobility of particles their diversity in size, material shape lets them spread widely. Further complicating matters is the ever-expanding plastics industry modifications its manufacturing processes. To date, many cases negative, often toxic effects microplastics on various species such as fish, birds mammals have been documented. methodology for measuring determining soil organisms still an area little understanding certainly requires further study. In our conducted experiment, we reported selected (polyethylene, polyethylene terephthalate, polystyrene, polyamide mixture these plastics) at concentrations 0.1% w/v 1% two time intervals, one three months, five different earthworm species, identifying species-related microplastic response. This study investigated biological parameters survival respiration biochemical glutathione s-transferase (GST), marker detoxification adaptive response Eisenia andrei, fetida, Lumbricus terrestris, Apporectoda caliginosa Dendrobena veneta. choices types are intended map occurrence contamination determine adaptation earthworms changing environmental conditions, considering ecological significance functional
