The world food price crisis in 2007/08 has aroused worldwide attention to the global food price volatility and food self-sufficiency issues.
The current paper critically reviews the state-of-the-science on (1) microplastics (MP) types and particle concentrations in freshwater ecosystems, (2) MP and nanoplastics (NP) uptake and tissue trans
Microplastics are widespread contaminants, virtually present in all environmental compartments.
Plastics entering the environment will persist and continue to degrade and fragment to smaller particles under the action of various environmental factors.
This review provides insight into the abundance, origin, distribution and composition of MPs in the sea surface and water column of the Mediterranean Sea.
