Abstract: Microplastics (MPs) can disintegrate into smaller sized microplastics and even nanoplastics (NPs). The toxicity of nanoplastics and microplastics on freshwater organisms have been well explored recently, however, very little is known about the potential impacts… read more here.

Abstract: Plastics in the environment can be degraded and even broken into pieces under the action of natural factors, and the degraded products with a particle size of less than 5 mm are called microplastics (MPs).… read more here.
