Microplastics (MPs), often termed “silent invaders,” have become ubiquitous pollutants across both terrestrial and aquatic environments, raising significant concerns in respect of their toxicological and ecological consequences. Thisr eview provides an in-depth multiscale evaluation of the toxic effects of microplastics, from molecular disruptions to ecosystem-level disturbances. Special priority is placed on the capacity of microplastics to act as vectors for a range of environmental ...
Microplastic pollution has become a prevalent environmental issue, with particles smaller than 5 millimeters infiltrating virtually every ecosystem. This review provides a comprehensive analysis of microplastic sources, formation mechanisms, quantification techniques, environmental impacts, toxicological effects, and remediation strategies. Microplastics originate from both primary and secondary sources. Primary microplastics include deliberately manufactured particles such as microbeads ...
The impacts of high concentrations of particulate matter in ambient air due to incessant anthropogenic activities have become a tremendous concern as regards to public health issues associated with it. This study aimed at assessing some meteorological parameters and particulate matter concentrations in ambient air around Bodo and Bori the largest communities in Ogoni in Rivers State. Okwale and Bera Mogho communities, distant from the study areas, served as control 1 and control 2 res...
