Abstract Human activity has led to microplastic contamination throughout the marine environment. As a result of widespread contamination, microplastics are ingested by many species wildlife, including fish, cephalopods, and shellfish. Taiwan is surrounded oceans that offer rich range seafood. Taiwanese residents can easily acquire seafood as source dietary protein. A recent research project Greenpeace shows eat 16,000 particles per year. There concern regarding physical chemical toxicity, which poses potential health risks local community via food chains. Thus, monitoring in imperative provide helpful information for government communities. Efforts should be taken reduce pollution at minimize effects on ecological safety. This review article emphasizes urgent need further Taiwan, highlights challenges mitigate this emerging environmental threat, analyzes safety hazards well

Microplastics (MPs) refer to tiny plastic particles, typically smaller than 5 mm in size. Due increased mask usage during COVID-19, improper disposal has led masks entering the environment and releasing MPs into surroundings. can absorb environmental hazards transfer them humans animals via food chain, yet their impacts on safety human health are largely neglected. This review summarizes release process of from face masks, influencing factors, safety. Highlights given prevalence combined toxicities with other hazards. Control strategies also explored. The is affected by factors like pH, UV light, temperature, ionic strength, weathering. chemical active surface large area, act as vectors for heavy metals, toxins, pesticides, antibiotics antibiotic resistance genes, foodborne pathogens through different mechanisms, such electrostatic interaction, precipitation, bioaccumulation. After being adsorbed MPs, toxicity these hazards, oxidative stress, cell apoptosis, disruption metabolic energy levels, be magnified. However, there a lack comprehensive research both well corresponding control strategies. Future should prioritize understanding interaction toxicity, integrating detection degradation methods

The widespread use of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and its entry into humans livestock is serious concern. In our study, we investigated the impact PVC treatments on physiological, pathological, hormonal, microbiota changes in female rabbits. Trend-like alterations weight were observed spleen, liver, kidney both low (P1) high dose (P2) treatment groups. Histopathological examination revealed exfoliation intestinal mucosa treated groups compared to control, microplastic particles penetrated embedded spleen. Furthermore, P1 P2 showed increased 17-beta-estradiol (E2) hormone levels, indicating early sexual maturation. Moreover, elevated tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) levels suggest inflammatory reactions associated with treatment. Genus-level analyses gut group several genera or decreased abundance. conclusion, significant trend-like correlations demonstrated between content feed parameters. To knowledge, this first study investigate broad-spectrum effects exposure These results highlight potential health risks exposure, warranting further investigations animals humans.
