Micro and Nanoplastics: An Emerging Threat to Aquatic Biota provides an essential reference for scientists, researchers, and students working in the isolation, identification, characterization, and toxicity of microplastics in the aquatic and terrestrial biota, and in human health. The book introduces micro and nanoplastics, including their pervasiveness and physicochemical properties in various environments. Chapters discuss methods and strategies for micro and nanoplastics extraction, characterization, and identification-covering the latest research on micro and nanoplastics accumulation and transfer in the food chain, exposure routes, macro-molecular interactions, potential impacts on humans, and global initiatives on banning single-use plastics, reducing plastic usage, and environmental release.
