Human uptake abundance of microplastics via various pathways, and they accumulate in human liver, kidney, gut even placenta (especially with a diameter 1 μm or less). Recent scientific studies have found that exposure to causes intestinal inflammation liver metabolic disorder, but it remains largely unknown whether the damage may cause further development severe diseases. In this study, we discovered one such potential diseases be induced by small-sized (with μm) performing multi-organ multi-omics study comprising metabolomics microbiome approaches. Unlike other animal experiments, dosing strategy was applied mice according daily highly exposed population, which more environmentally relevant reflective real-world exposure. Our on gut-liver axis metabolism shown crosstalk between ultimately leaded insulin resistance diabetes. We proactively verified hypothesis measuring levels fasting blood glucose insulin, were significantly elevated These results indicate urgent need large-scale cohort evaluation epidemiology prognosis after future.

Removal of Polystyrene Microplastics from Aqueous Solution Using the Metal–Organic Framework Material of ZIF-67

Toxics, Год журнала: 2022, Номер 10(2), С. 70 - 70

Опубликована: Фев. 4, 2022

Due to the continuous and adverse effects of microplastics on environment, an increasing number studies have begun focus their migration patterns removal from aquatic environments. Herein, our study innovatively evaluated ability capacity ZIF-67, a novel metal-organic framework (MOF) material, adsorb polystyrene (PS) (MPs) aqueous solutions, aiming explore potential MOF materials remove MPs wastewater. The adsorption ratio PSMPs (5 mg/L, 30 mL) by ZIF-67 reached up 92.1%, PSMP equilibrium was achieved within 20 min at 298 K. would be favored pH 8, solution concentration 5 temperature Further analyses demonstrated that hydrogen bond interactions, π-π stacking, electrostatic interactions played crucial role in solutions. Our findings thus provide insight into methods acidic weakly alkaline environments

Microplastics and nanoplastics in food, water, and beverages; part I. occurrence

TrAC Trends in Analytical Chemistry, Год журнала: 2022, Номер 159, С. 116670 - 116670

Опубликована: Май 10, 2022

In recent years, the presence of microplastics (MPs) and nanoplastics (NPs) has been assessed in several environmental matrices, including marine environment agricultural soil, suggesting those pollutants are likely to enter food web. However, there is still a severe lack information about occurrence plastic particles our food, partially due multidimensionality data necessary fully describe MP contamination consequent difficulty validating analytical methods. this review, consisting two parts, preliminary results MPs water, beverages summarized (Part I) approaches for characterization micro- nano-sized reported discussed II). The gathered manuscript highlights need more comprehensive knowledge MP/NP along chain order assess safety risk related contaminants implement strategies their monitoring products intended human consumption. Therefore, an outlook field towards coherent, consistent, policy-relevant collection standardization included review.
