Micro and nanoplastics are the degradation products of large plastic compounds. These degraded polymers enter into the natural environment, including air, water, and food, which leads to various significant threats to human health. The nature of these micro and nanoplastics is persistent and consequently accumulates in the exposed person's body. Research into microplastics has shown that these particles accumulate in various human organs and impart detrimental effects on humans. To safeguard human health, analysis and remediation strategies are necessary. This book provides a comprehensive overview in 24 chapters on the source, distribution, life cycle assessment strategies, physico-chemical interactions, methods of analysis, toxicological investigation, and remediation strategies of micro and nanoplastics. Audience This book is a valuable resource for chemists and polymer scientists in various industries including plastics, fisheries, food and beverages, environmental sciences, agriculture, and medicine, as well as government policymakers. 4aPolymer Science & Technology General 4aEcotoxicology & Pollution Science 4aEnvironmental Chemistry00aMicroplastics; Nanoplastics; Impacts; Ecotoxicity; Toxicity; Interactions; Exposure; Environment; Soils; Water; Air; Human Health; Food; Analysis; Remediations1 aInamuddin4edt1 aAltalhi, Tariq4edt1 aFernandes, Virgínia Cruz4edt08iPrinted edition:z978139423812540uhttps://doi.org/10.1002/9781394238163aWiley Online Library40uhttps://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/action/showBook?doi=10.1002%2F9781394238163aWiley Online Library423Cover Imageuhttps://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/cms/asset/6e05a11a-7205-43ac-af26-31440f0b267d/9781394238163.cover.gifaWiley Online Library
