Plastic pollution is a global diffuse threat, especially considering its fragmentation into microplastics (MPs) and nanoplastics (NPs). Since the contamination of aquatic environment already well studied, most studies have now focused on soil. Moreover, number exposure routes toxic effects MNPs in humans continuously increasing. Although can cause inflammation, cytotoxicity, genotoxicity immune toxicity livestock animals, which accumulate ingested/inhaled plastic particles transfer them to through food chain, research this topic still lacking. In farm animals as missing link between soil/plant human health effects, paper aims describe their importance carriers vectors MNP contamination. As early stages, there no standard method quantify amount characteristics different matrices. Therefore, creation common database where researchers report data quantification methods could be helpful for both standardization future training an AI tool predicting abundant/dangerous polymer(s), thus supporting policy decisions reduce perfectly fitting with One Health principles.

Micro-nano plastics (MNPs) are emerging environmental and food contaminants that raising serious health concerns. Due to the polycontamination of web with pollutants (EPs), now MNPs, co-ingestion EPs MNPs is likely occur, potential synergistic effects such co-ingestions completely unstudied. In this study, we therefore sought determine two model EPs, arsenic boscalid, on uptake toxicity 25 1000 nm polystyrene (PS-25 PS-1000), vice versa, employing a triculture small intestinal epithelium combined simulated digestion. 24 h exposures, neither nor + caused significant toxicity. The presence PS-25 significantly increased (from 0.0 5.8%, p < 0.001) translocation 5.2 9.8%, 0.05) but had no effect boscalid or translocation, whereas PS-1000 either EP. both PS was also by rising from 10.6 19.5% (p 0.01) for 4.8 8.5% PS-1000. These findings highlight need further studies assess MNP-EP interactions possible adverse impacts.

Biochar-based adsorption technologies for microplastic remediation in aquatic ecosystems

AIP Advances, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 15(3)

Опубликована: Март 1, 2025

Since microplastic (MP) particles pose serious dangers to human and environmental health by infiltrating aquatic habitats, soils, even the food chain, MP contamination has emerged as a major problem. Developing implementing efficient sorption techniques is essential lessening effects of pollution, which becoming more common. Innovative solutions are required since traditional removal frequently struggle effectively capture MPs, especially smaller particles. An overview origins processes contamination, possible effects, difficulties in identifying them biological systems given this article. One adaptable method for eliminating MPs from environments adsorption technology. Because its large surface area, complex porosity, strong stability, biochar become viable option among sorbents. Systems based on provide an economical sustainable way reduce makes important area further study. The potential rehabilitation highlighted review, also argues wider incorporation into management procedures. review affirms danger that represent ecosystems living organisms, but it points out there still gaps our understanding their consequences. Despite presentation cost-effective promising adsorbent, work maximize efficiency, optimize use, incorporate industrial-scale operations. To properly handle escalating problem these developments crucial.
