The harmful environmental impact of plastic waste has justifiably received substantial attention from the scientific community. In contrast, toxicological effects nanoplastics (NP) on aquatic organisms, as well potential implications for human health, remain largely unexplored and poorly understood. Despite growing awareness pollution, risks associated with ubiquitous presence in our food beverages are not yet fully recognized. NPs, which smaller than 1 µm, along a mixture MPs fragments, can find their way into water bodies through various sources may easily be taken up by organisms. This paper summarizes existing literature NPs bioavailability, accumulation patterns within tissues fish, shellfish, zooplankton, influence biological factors absorption diet. Study indicated that pose significant to both ecosystems health due ability bioaccumulate marine organisms biomagnify web. It highlighted species ingest leading distribution across different tissues, result toxic such oxidative stress, DNA damage, inflammation, impacts growth reproduction. identified critical gaps current research, particularly regarding long-term low-dose NP exposure need standardized testing methodologies ensure comparability studies. Furthermore, necessity further research understand pathways humans exposed toxicokinetics, chronic issues. Therefore, more studies required employ rigorous uniform address an emerging threat chains; accurately assess related together cumulative toxicity perhaps when combined other pollutants.

As millions of tonnes plastics wind up in the environment, plastic pollution is a severe issue that worsens with time. In addition to primary particles, large items are fragmented due ultraviolet radiation, degradation, and other environmental causes, resulting minuscule compounds, known as microplastics or nanoplastics. They adsorb hazardous contaminants easily get absorbed by organisms, for example, polychlorinated biphenyls, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, heavy metals adhered microplastic surfaces their tiny size surface area. Studies on toxicity fate crucial light these challenges, but effectiveness depends sampling procedure, sample preparation, characterization, analysis, quantification techniques. The standard methods characterization performed using Fourier transform infrared resonance, Raman Spectroscopy, pyrolysis Gas Chromatography Mass Spectrometry. Unfortunately, none techniques can achieve in-situ non-invasive characterization. These processes complex, non-uniform across studies, different specific domains such soil/sediment, water groundwater, biota, atmosphere. Thus, current study highlights methodology being used sampling, analysis from solid, aqueous, air, biota samples. This review paper also specifies tool concentration types Future studies should prioritize development standardized protocols ensure comparability diverse ecosystems. Additionally, employing advanced analytical collaborating interdisciplinary fields enhance accuracy reliability separation methods.
