Recent discoveries of microplastics in cities, suburbs, and even remote locations, far from microplastic source regions, have raised the possibility long-distance transmission many ecosystems. A little is known scientifically about threat that it posed to environment by microplastics. The problem's apparent size necessitates rapid development reliable scientific advice regarding ecological risks These concerns are brought on lack consistent sample identification techniques, as well limited physical analysis understanding pollution. This review provides insight some unaddressed issues occurrence, fate, movement, impact microplastics, general, with special emphasis primary approaches taken earlier investigations been analyzed different recommendations for future research suggested.

The extensive use of plastic without an effective management system is linked to significant environmental pollution issues. The fragmentation various types waste leads the formation microplastics (MPs) and nanoplastics (NPs). NPs, measuring less than 0.1 μm pose a latent danger human food chain caused by ability traverse biological membranes MPs, potentially leading chronic diseases. widespread distribution NPs across diverse matrices their subsequent infiltration into feed chains precipitates emerging health concerns. contaminate production systems leach from packaging, infiltrating organisms at trophic levels. Seafood, processed foods, drinking water serve as vectors for absorption accumulation in tissues. pervasive contamination pathway poses substantial risks through multiple exposure routes, primarily ingestion. It can lead cytotoxicity, inflammation, genotoxicity, apoptosis. This review summarizes implications that triggers diseases such inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), kidney dysfunction, liver disease, heart problems, brain disorders, reproductive issues, cancer. Currently, no established method exists treat humans may have already ingested. Hence, it urgent mitigate harmful effects development implementation innovative, efficient, sustainable decontamination strategies. discussion highlights several advanced remediation techniques effectively reduce toxicity systems, thus mitigating associated risks.

The growth of the plastic industry alongside inadequate management waste has resulted in pollution. Nanoplastic particles can be toxic and induce oxidative stress. This research explored ability Cinnamomum burmanii leaf extract to mitigate hematological alterations induced by exposure low-dose nanoplastics polystyrene (NPs) male albino rats. Normal control negative groups were administrated with aquadest NPs solution (10µL/kg) for 14 days respectively, followed next 21 days. Groups 3, 4, 5 received a combined treatment (100, 200, 400mg/kg). Each group consists five Animal treatments administered through oral gavage. Then, parameters analyzed. results revealed that caused significant elevation lymphocyte counts decrease monocytes, red blood cells (RBC), hemoglobin (Hb), hematocrit (Ct). Nevertheless, there was no impact observed on white (WBC), granulocytes, or platelet counts. Within treated extract, reduction WBC observed, an increase monocyte However, noted RBC, Hb, Ct, may hold promise improving hemodynamic profile bodies exposed NPs.

Pollution from plastic debris and microplastics (MPs) is a worldwide issue. Classified as emerging contaminants, MPs have become widespread been found not only in terrestrial aquatic ecosystems but also within the food chain, which affects both environment human health. Since outbreak of COVID-19, consumption single-use plastics has drastically increased, intensifying mismanaged waste countries such Ecuador. Therefore, aim this review to 1) summarize state MP-related knowledge, focusing on studies conducted with environmental matrices, biota, food, 2) analyze efforts by different national authorities entities Ecuador control MP contamination.

: Microplastics and nanoplastics (MNPs) are becoming an increasingly severe global problem due to their widespread distribution complex impact on living organisms. Apart from environmental impact, the effects of MNPs organisms have also continued attract attention. The harmful has been extensively documented in marine invertebrates larger vertebrates like fish. However, research toxicity these particles mammals is still limited, possible humans poorly understood. Considering that commonly found food or packaging, primarily exposed them through ingestion. It would be valuable investigate potential gut health. This review focuses recent exploring toxicological impacts micro- gut, as observed human cell lines mammalian models. Available data various studies indicate accumulation models cells may result adverse consequences, terms epithelial toxicity, immune disruption microbiota. paper discusses current limitations prospects this field, aiming provide a scientific basis reference for further toxic mechanisms nanoplastics.
