“…Due to the extensive production, use, and uncontrolled disposal of plastics to the environment, microplastics (MPs, a particle size of <5 mm) and nanoplastics (NPs, 1 to 1000 nm) are released into the environment. 1 Considering their ubiquitous detection in oceans, freshwater, air, soils, and polar regions, they are a potential menace to the environment. 2 Also, recent studies indicated the existence of MPs/NPs in human placentas, lung tissues, and blood, 3 which can cause detrimental and severe health issues.…”
