Seeking for a perfect (non-spherical) microplastic particle-The most comprehensive review on microplastic laboratory research

Ula Rozman et al.

Summary: This review summarizes the results of 715 laboratory studies published in the last five years on microplastics, finding that the majority of microplastic particles used are manufactured polystyrene spheres, with half of the studies failing to characterize the particles. There is also a discrepancy between microplastics used in the laboratory and those found in the environment, highlighting the need for more environmentally relevant research in the future.

Photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue (MB) with Cu1-ZnO single atom catalysts on graphene-coated flexible substrates

Ping Rong et al.

Summary: Cu-1-ZnO/GPET composite material with Cu atom dopants shows significantly enhanced photocatalytic activity. The Cu atoms capture photogenerated electrons and help separate them from holes, leading to the activation of O2 and the generation of hydroxyl radicals through reaction with water, resulting in efficient degradation of pollutants.

Risk assessment of microplastic particles

Albert A. Koelmans et al.

Summary: This Review examines the properties of microplastic particles and discusses methods of assessing the risks they pose to humans and the environment. Microplastic particles are widespread in the environment and can be found in the air we breathe and the food we eat. The lack of a risk assessment framework that considers the multidimensionality of microplastic particles compared to natural particles is a key challenge. This article reviews current understanding of microplastic characteristics and effects and proposes a method for quantifying exposure and effect thresholds using probability density functions.

Adsorption of benzalkonium chlorides onto polyethylene microplastics: Mechanism and toxicity evaluation

Tae-Kyoung Kim et al.

Summary: The study revealed that polyethylene microplastics have strong adsorption capacity for benzalkonium chlorides, with the adsorption capacity increasing with their octanol-water distribution coefficients. Dissolved organic matter inhibited the adsorption, and a slightly inverse relationship between particle size of polyethylene microplastics and adsorption was observed.

Individual and combined multigenerational effects induced by polystyrene nanoplastic and glyphosate in Daphnia magna (Strauss, 1820)

Diego Jose Nogueira et al.

Summary: This study investigated the acute and multigenerational effects of polystyrene nanoplastic (PSNP) and glyphosate (Gly) on the freshwater crustacean Daphnia magna. The interactions between these compounds were mathematically predicted and evaluated using multiple toxicological endpoints. The results indicated that the combined individual toxicities of Gly and PSNP were increased when they were present as a mixture. The mixture also caused changes in mobility, ROS production, and reproduction parameters in Daphnia magna. These findings provide important information on the interaction of hydrophilic organic and nanoplastic pollutants in aqueous ecosystems.

Phenothiazine-based conjugated microporous polymers: Pore surface and bandgap engineering for visible light-driven aerobic oxidative cyanation

Sizhe Li et al.

Summary: The photocatalytic aerobic oxidative cyanation of tertiary amines using phenothiazine-containing conjugated microporous polymers (CMPs) as heterogeneous visible light-active photocatalysts showed superior catalytic activity, extensive substrate adaptability, and outstanding recyclability. Fine molecular engineering with electron-donating and -withdrawing groups on the comonomer compositions allowed for tuning of the pore surface and band gap of CMPs, leading to enhanced photo-induced charge separation and interaction with substrates. The fluorine-substituted CMP-PTZ-3 demonstrated high efficiency, good stability, and regenerability as a pure organic photocatalyst, providing new insights in designing high-performance photocatalysts through molecular engineering strategy.

Summary: Microplastics adsorb contaminants and can mitigate the toxic effects of certain pollutants on microorganisms, as demonstrated by combined-exposure assays showing that polyethylene microplastics can alleviate the toxicity of nano zinc oxide on marine microalgal growth. This interaction may be achieved through zinc oxide adsorption onto the polyethylene microplastic surface.

Summary: Plastics, synthetic polymers known for their durability and versatility, have replaced traditional materials in many applications but pose a major threat to the environment due to their unique traits. Limited data on freshwater microplastic contamination in South East Asia makes assessing the risks to human and ecological health difficult. Research on contamination levels, sources, impacts on organisms, and knowledge gaps related to microplastic fate and effects in freshwater ecosystems in the region is still lacking.

Summary: This study found that microplastic-associated biofilms can enhance the adsorption capacity of Pb(II) onto microplastics in urban lakes and reservoirs, but natural substrates still exhibit higher adsorption capacity. Ionic strength and pH significantly influence the adsorption of Pb(II) on all solid substrates, especially under neutral conditions where competitive adsorption occurs between anthropogenic and natural substrates.
