Microplastic is now ubiquitous in freshwater, sediment and biota, globally. This is as a consequence of inputs from, for example, waste mismanagement, effluents from wastewater treatment plants and surface runoff from agricultural areas. In...
Development and application of a health-based framework for informing regulatory action in relation to exposure of microplastic particles in California drinking water [0.03%]
基于健康影响的加州饮用水微塑料风险监管行动框架构建及应用研究

Microplastics have been documented in drinking water, but their effects on human health from ingestion, or the concentrations at which those effects begin to manifest, are not established. Here, we report on the outcome of a virtual expert ...
Screening and prioritization of nano- and microplastic particle toxicity studies for evaluating human health risks - development and application of a toxicity study assessment tool [0.03%]
纳米和微塑料颗粒毒理学研究的筛选与优先级评定:开发并应用一种毒理学研究评估工具

Todd Gouin et al.
Concern regarding the human health implications that exposure to nano- and microplastic particles (NMPs) potentially represents is increasing. While there have been several years of research reporting on the ecotoxicological effects of NMPs...
Environmental hazard of polypropylene microplastics from disposable medical masks: acute toxicity towards Daphnia magna and current knowledge on other polypropylene microplastics [0.03%]
一次性医用口罩聚丙烯微塑料的环境危害:水蚤急性毒性实验与聚丙烯微塑料的相关知识综述

Mass estimates of plastic pollution in the Great Lakes based on surface samples differ by orders of magnitude from what is predicted by production and input rates. It has been theorized that a potential location of this missing plastic is o...
Microplastics in fecal samples of whale sharks (Rhincodon typus) and from surface water in the Philippines [0.03%]

Marine plastic abundance has increased over the past 60 years and microplastics (< 5 mm) constitute a primary component of such litter. Filter-feeding megafauna, such as the whale shark, might be particularly affected by microplastic pollut...
Towards a 'theory of change' for ocean plastics: a socio-oceanography approach to the global challenge of plastic pollution [0.03%]
迈向海洋塑料“变革理论”:全球塑料污染问题的社会海洋学方法挑战
Socio-oceanography is an emerging field which mobilises insights from natural and social sciences to explore the inter-connectedness of societal relationships with the ocean and to adopt a holistic approach to solving key oceanographic and ...
