Micro- and nanoplastics: A new cardiovascular risk factor?

Xiaoqi Zhu et al.

Summary: This article reviews the latest research on the cardiovascular toxicity and mechanisms of micro- and nanoplastics (MNPs) in the past decade. MNPs have been found to have toxic effects on cardiac functions and microvasculature, with mechanisms involving oxidative stress, inflammation, apoptosis, pyroptosis, and interaction with cellular components. However, the lack of information on the absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion of MNPs, as well as the absence of guidelines for cardiotoxicity testing, makes it impossible to assess the risk to cardiac health. Further research is needed to enable more accurate risk assessment of MNPs on cardiovascular health.

Analysis of Microplastics in Human Feces Reveals a Correlation between Fecal Microplastics and Inflammatory Bowel Disease Status

Zehua Yan et al.

Summary: The study found that the concentration of fecal microplastics in patients with inflammatory bowel disease was significantly higher than in healthy individuals, with poly(ethylene terephthalate) and polyamide being the main components in the feces. A positive correlation between fecal microplastics concentration and the severity of IBD was also observed. Plastic packaging of drinking water and food, as well as dust exposure, were identified as important sources of human exposure to microplastics.

Plastic cutting boards as a source of microplastics in meat

Rana Zeeshan Habib et al.

Summary: Plastic cutting boards were identified as the source of polythene microplastic contamination in commercially available meat in the Middle East, contributing directly to microplastic presence in wastewater. Microplastic size decreased after cooking or frying due to melting and partial recrystallization. Short washing had little impact on microplastic contamination, while extensive washing over longer time periods significantly reduced microplastic count.

Microplastic bioaccumulation in estuary-caught fishery resource

Zhenling Li et al.

Summary: The study comprehensively investigated the accumulation, organ distribution, and influencing factors of microplastics in estuarine ecosystems, revealing that sediment-dwelling organisms exhibit higher levels of microplastic accumulation compared to pelagic animals. The accumulation of microplastics in crustaceans with a burrowing behavior is higher than in fish. Microplastics ingested by fish tend to accumulate in the skin, gills, and viscera rather than the muscles. Pelagic fish have a stronger capacity to retain smaller-sized microplastics compared to benthic fish. The study emphasizes the importance of considering the maximum size of microplastics accumulated in organisms when assessing ecological risks. The higher incidence of microplastic uptake in estuaries, as opposed to offshore areas, is attributed to anthropogenic impacts. The findings contribute to understanding the transfer of microplastics in aquatic food webs and assessing the health risks associated with human exposure to microplastics.

Microplastic Contamination of Chicken Meat and Fish through Plastic Cutting Boards

Rana Zeeshan Habib et al.

Summary: Microplastic contamination was found in fish and chicken purchased in the Middle East, with higher contamination levels in chicken compared to fish. The source of the microplastic was traced back to the polythene-based plastic cutting board used to prepare the food. Washing the food before preparation reduced but did not eliminate the microplastic contamination. The wear rates of different plastic cutting boards were found to be similar.

Durable Plastic Goods: A Source of Microplastics and Chemical Additives in the Built and Natural Environments

Robert C. Hale et al.

Summary: Marine plastic pollution caused by single-use packaging is a growing concern. Durable plastics used for longer-term purposes are more likely to contain persistent, bioaccumulative, and toxic chemical additives. These additives and polymer fragments are released into enclosed indoor spaces during the service lives of plastic products, leading to human exposure and eventually reaching wastewater treatment plants. However, only around half of global wastewater receives any treatment. Upgrading wastewater treatment and excluding certain solids from land-applied biosolids could significantly reduce the release of microplastics and toxic contaminants.

The humic acid-like substances released from Microcystis aeruginosa contribute to defending against smaller-sized microplastics

Yiying Jiao et al.

Summary: This study investigated the effects of polystyrene microplastics on the extracellular polymeric substance (EPS) produced by Microcystis aeruginosa. The results showed that high concentrations of 0.1 pm and 1.0 pm polystyrene microplastics significantly increased algal growth. All tested microplastics had the greatest inhibitory effect on photosynthesis on day 5, but the inhibition of photosynthetic activity by 0.1 pm microplastics alleviated after 13 days of exposure. The release of EPS was triggered by both sizes of microplastics at 100 mg/L concentration in the later stage of the experiment.

Current Status of Organic Matters in Bottled Drinking Water in Korea

Inbo Park et al.

Summary: This study investigated the presence of microplastics in plastic bottled drinking water purchased from a South Korean local market. The study found a significant amount of organic matter in the plastic bottles, which was not soluble in water after being concentrated and dried as a solid. Various stress tests on the plastic bottles did not significantly increase the organic matter content. The potential adverse effects of the organic matter on human cells were evaluated and found to be insignificant. However, long-term monitoring of organic matter accumulation in the human body is necessary due to the higher probability of nanoscale material uptake.
