Abstract Microplastic pollution in agricultural soils is a growing global concern that demands an urgent understanding of its effects on soil function and ecosystem services. Soil-dwelling earthworms exhibit strong subsoil bioturbation, which contributes to processes associated with many services such as water regulation, nutrient cycling, biomass production, control remediation, among others. This functional association between has made these organisms suitable candidates for assessing microplastic soils. However, based the literature systematically reviewed here, current knowledge toxicity mainly derives from recurrent methodological pattern, implies lab-scale standardised testing. Eisenia fetida E. andrei have been model earthworm species (86% screened publications), leading risk biased data. Additionally, ecological characteristics spp. raise uncertainties about environmental agronomic meaning testing outcomes. These are absent lands inhabit surface, avoiding ingestion mineral soil. Accordingly, more environmentally realistic assessment needed, involves field soil, native possible aged microplastics environment. review identifies specific gaps regarding use pollution, suggests moving ecotoxicity towards retrospective approach, complex setups (field-simulated ex-situ microcosms) interactions biomolecules other contaminants (e.g. protein corona eco-corona) may modulate toxicity.

Plastic products in plant production and protection help farmers increase crop production, enhance food quality, reduce global water use their environmental footprint. Simultaneously, plastic has emerged as a critical ecological issue recent years, its pollution significantly impacted soil, water, plants. Thus, this review examines the multifaceted problems of agriculture risk to security, ecosystem, environment. The study’s objective was present most information on using different agriculture, sources pollution, advantages drawbacks products, strategies for mitigating agriculture. Furthermore, after examining current applications, benefits, adverse effects, risks plants, environment, we addressed requirements technological advancements, regulations, social processes that could contribute our ecosystems. We identified pathways toward more sustainable plastics discussed future research directions.

The extensive use of polymeric materials has resulted in significant environmental pollution, prompting the need for a deeper understanding their degradation processes and impacts. This review provides comprehensive analysis environment impact on health experimental animals. It identifies common polymers, delineates pathways, describes resulting products under different conditions. covers physical, chemical, biological mechanisms, highlighting complex interplay factors influencing these processes. Furthermore, it examines implications products, using animals as proxies assessing potential risks to human health. By synthesizing current research, focuses studies related small organisms (primarily rodents invertebrates, supplemented by fish mollusks) explore effects polymer living underscores urgency developing implementing effective waste management strategies. These strategies are crucial mitigating adverse impacts degradation, thus promoting more sustainable interaction between activities natural environment.

Microplastics (MPs) are of great interest for study because they accumulate in environmental systems, such as terrestrial ones, which include agricultural soils. Unfortunately, recent years, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, many face masks have been discarded environment, causing an increase this type MP. This accumulation can influence physicochemical and biological properties soil derived from its microbial activity. In present study, different concentrations MPs commercial polypropylene (PP) were mixed with soil. Four treatments following MP studied: T1: 0%, T2: 0.5%, T3: 1%, T4: 5% w w−1. C N mineralization experiments carried out over time at microcosm level, where physicochemical, enzymatic ecophysiological indicators analyzed. Based on analyzed indicators, a quality index called Unified Weighted Additive Index (SQIu) was developed. The resulting SQIu showed Nmin indicator closest relationship soils MPs. Once determined, T4 treatment significant differences (p≤0.05) respect control, presenting higher value. importance conducting more research dynamics types, sizes, help establish strategies measure effects local, national, international levels.
