Microplastics, as an emerging environmental pollutant, have received widespread attention for their potential impact on ecosystems and human health. Microplastics are defined plastic particles less than 5 millimeters in diameter can be categorized primary secondary microplastics. Primary microplastics usually originate directly from industrial production, while formed by the degradation of larger items. capable triggering cytotoxicity chronic inflammation, may promote cancer through mechanisms such pro-inflammatory responses, oxidative stress endocrine disruption. In addition, improved bring new perspectives to therapy, studies drug carriers underway, showing high targeting bioavailability. Although current suggest association between certain cancers (e.g., lung, liver, breast cancers), long-term effects specific still need studied. This review aimed at exploring carcinogenicity promising applications therapy provides important directions future research emphasizes multidisciplinary collaboration address this global health challenge.

Coastal wetlands function as critical retention zones for environmental microplastics, potentially accelerating their degradation through unique hydrological conditions. This study conducted a comprehensive 24-month in situ experiment at the Chongming Dongtan National Nature Reserve, examining weathering processes of five morphologically distinct polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), and polystyrene (PS) microplastics. Quarterly analyses revealed progressive surface deterioration all microplastics after initial exposure, followed by polymer-specific fragmentation patterns pollutant adherence. Surface elemental analysis showed rising O/C ratios, with intertidal exhibiting higher variance (0.0014-0.0096 vs 0.0006-0.0028 supratidal). Carbonyl index (CI) displayed fluctuating increases, PS showing highest CI rise (75.75%/year 61.77%/year Systematic comparisons identified three determinants: enhanced from mechanical-photochemical synergy; spherical particles degrading faster than films via larger area; polymer vulnerabilities dictating > PP PE rates. These findings demonstrate that microplastic coastal is collectively governed conditions, particle morphology, composition, providing crucial quantitative parameters assessing persistence ecological risks these sensitive transition ecosystems.

Abstract The integration of nanotechnology in agriculture offers a transformative approach to improving crop yields, resource efficiency, and ecological sustainability. This review highlights the application functional NM, such as nano-formulated agrochemicals, nanosensors, slow-release fertilizers, which enhance effectiveness fertilizers pesticides while minimizing environmental impacts. By leveraging unique properties agricultural practices can achieve better nutrient absorption, reduced chemical runoff, improved water conservation. Innovations like nano-priming seed germination drought resilience, nanosensors enable precise monitoring soil health. Despite promising commercial potential, significant challenges persist regarding safety, impact, regulatory frameworks for nanomaterial use. emphasizes need comprehensive safety assessments standardized risk evaluation protocols ensure responsible implementation agriculture.
