UVB-aged microplastics and cellular damage : An in vitro study
2024-02-14
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Plastics are synthetic organic compounds whose widespread use generates enormous waste. Different processes, such as mechanical abrasion, microbiological activity, and UVB irradiation, can fragment the plastic material and generate microplastics (MPs). MPs are ubiquitous, and various organisms, including humans, can ingest or inhale them, with potential adverse health effects. The diffe...
