The ubiquitous presence of micro and nanoplastics (MNPs) in the environment has become a pressing global concern, particularly regarding potential impacts on human health. This review underscores urgent need for an integrative research framework that bridges gap between epidemiological observations toxicological insights. Human exposure to MNPs occurs predominantly through ingestion, inhalation dermal contact pathways. Epidemiological findings have consistently demonstrated diverse tissues, signaling broad emphasizing imperative explore health risks. Population surveys shown concentration feces people using disposable plastic tableware reaches 24.65 items/g. These results are associated with changes microbiota composition metabolite levels relevant central nervous system disorders, energy metabolism inflammatory responses. detectable abundance nasal mucus individuals wearing N95 masks was measured be 10.6 ± 2.3 items/mg. Moreover, population- based studies linked MNP adverse outcomes, suggesting correlation relationships specific diseases such as bowel disease (IBD) pulmonary ground-glass nodules (GGN). associations underscore necessity in-depth investigations elucidate toxicity mechanisms MNPs. Meanwhile, laboratory-based reveal causative various vitro vivo models been used gastrointestinal tract, lungs cardiovascular system. However, early failed reflect complexity real environment. To foster interdisciplinary collaborations, this paper aims reconcile disparities risks impacts. By critically reviewing recent advancements understanding MNPs, organ-specific toxicity, work furnishes comprehensive perspective implications

Microplastic and Nanoplastic Particle Isolation from Liquid and Biological Samples via Mini-Extruder Filtration (MEF)

Environments, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 11(8), С. 180 - 180

Microplastic pollution poses an increasing environmental and human health risk additional techniques are needed to facilitate nondestructive, quantitative particle recovery analysis. Using a mini-extruder filtration (MEF) device, the efficiency of pristine capture from solution digested biological tissue (blood clots) was assessed. Polystyrene particles in both submicron (100, 300, 500 nm) micron range (2, 5, 7, 10 µm) with aminated, carboxylated, or unmodified surface modifications were explored. The MEF-isolated-particle analyzed pre- postseparation isolation quantified via Nanosight LM10 tracking system (submicron particles) hemacytometer (micron particles). Particles’ chemistry concentration did not impact compared unfiltered samples smaller sizes reducing efficiency. Micron size averaged 86.8 ± 4.3% across all chemistries at same concentration; however, recoveries varied by charge nm exhibiting 80.6 16.6%, 300 73.0 10.4%, 100 17.0 10.3%. used as system, efficiently captures 0.5 µm making it effective low-cost platform facilitating nondestructive diverse microplastics for subsequent
