Microplastics(微塑料) have been found in our water, food, and the air we breathe, according to a 2021 scientific report. Just a year later,another study found microplastics in the human bloodstream. I Now, for the first time microplastics have been discovered in the human heart. A team of...
1.根据空前“Microplastics are found almost everywhere, in food, drinking water, cosmetics, household products.”可知,微塑料几乎随处可见,在食品、饮用水、化妆品、家用产品中。根据空后“However, there are steps we can take to minimize our microplastic intake.”可知,然而我们可以采取一些措施来减少我们的...
These particles are not restricted to human-inhabited lands but also found in different mountains and glaciers where the human population is relatively low. These MPs make their way to the river ecosystem from glaciers, rains, and municipal and industrial effluents. The current study was designed ...
Microplastic pollution in surface water and sediments As microplastics are found in water, soil, air, and other media with different abundance, sizes, shapes, colors, and polymer types, their physical and chemical properties need to be investigated. Hence, the characteristics of microplastics in surf...
After trawling an area of 0.01068 km2and filtering 1,676 cubic metres of water, they found 446 plastic particles, 91.6% of which were classed as microplastics. The average number of particles per unit of surface area of the lake was relatively high – around 41,800 particles per km2– even...
答案: A recent study has revealed the presence of microplastics in water samples worldwide, posing a threat to the environment and human health. Alarmingly, microplastics have also been found in drinking water, raising concerns about the potential long-term effects on humans. To address this issue...
根据第一段中的“ Microplastics are found almost everywhere ... researchers have even found microplastics present in human blood. Generally, microplastics are purposefully added to a wide range of products ... amounting to an estimated 50,000 tons a year in the European Union alone”可知.微塑料...
There is growing evidence that microplastic pollution (<5 mm in size) is now present in virtually all marine ecosystems, even in remote areas, such as the Arctic and the Antarctic. Microplastics have been found in water and sediments of the Antarct
Microplastics usually refer to plastic fibers, film, fragments and micro-sized pieces less than 5 millimeters in size. They are widely found in water, soil, sediment, the atmosphere and even snow and ice, and their potential impact on the climate and environment is significant. Typical ...
Polyethylene (PET) and polyamide (PA) were the dominant microplastics found in the water column and in particle-feeding marine life. Dominant plastic types identified from (A) water samples from 5 to 1000 m depths, (B) gastrointestinal tracts of pelagic red crabs (Pleuroncodes planipes), ...
