Ecotoxicological Assessment of Microplastics in Freshwater Sources-A Review

Martina Miloloza et al.

Summary: The increase in high living standards and modern ways of life have led to a rise in plastic products usage, resulting in more plastic debris in the environment, with a particular focus on microplastics (MPs) as emerging contaminants of concern. This review examines the adverse effects of MPs on the environment, particularly on aquatic organisms, and discusses the cumulative toxic effects of MPs and adsorbed pollutants. It also covers the sources of MPs discharge, classification methods, and monitoring techniques to address the complex issue of MPs in the environment.
