There has been an exponential interest in the occurrence and potential ecotoxicological consequences stemming from growing prevalence of (micro)plastics environment. This especially evident by increasing concern regarding visible effects on marine ecosystems, with multiple local, regional trans-national initiatives developed towards mitigation what construed as environmental disaster. However, it is not clear benefits – if any multitude norms, regulations, laws recommendations that have...
The impact of a microplastic (MPs) mixture composed polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP) plastic particles, prepared from commercially available products, was evaluated in blue mussels Mytilus spp. exposed to three environmentally relevant concentrations: 0.008µg Lˉ¹ (low), 10 µg (medium) 100 (high). Organisms were for days followed by depuration clean seawater under controlled laboratory conditions. evaluation MP effects on mussel clearance rate, tissue structure, antioxidant defences,...
Plastic additives comprise a plethora of substances that serve numerous purposes in the plastic industry. These can be used to assist molding plastics and contribute providing optimal performance material when molded used, or, simply, reduce costs. However, these additives, non-polymerized monomers, far more hazardous than their poly-counterparts, may released throughout entire life cycle plastics, posing risks environment and, ultimately, human health. Hence, many studies have delved into...
The fate and effects of CuO nanoparticles (CuO NPs) were examined in endobenthic species (Scrobicularia plana, Hediste diversicolor), under environmentally realistic conditions outdoor mesocosms (exposure to Cu at 10 μg L–1 particulate or soluble salt (CuNO3) forms) for 21 days. Labile was determined water sediment by using diffusive gradient thin films. No labile being detected from NPs; the observed invertebrates exposed NPs mainly attributed toxicity nanoparticulate rather than dissolved...

Nanotechnology is a much promising field of science and technology with applications in wide range areas such as electronics, biomedical applications, energy cosmetics. Metal-based engineered nanoparticles (ENPs) are common many technological applications; some the most available commercially silver, gold, copper oxide (CuO), zinc (ZnO) cadmium sulphide (CdS). The toxicity metal-based NPs may be either due to their specific physical characteristics or metals released from under environmental...
