Bioimaging approaches for mapping micro/nanoplastic distribution in living systems: Advancing One-Health risk assessment

Key Points

• Mapping micro/nanoplastics helps understand their impact on living systems and ecosystems.
• Key evidence reveals detectable levels of microplastics in 8 out of 10 sampled ecosystems.
• Assessment of bioimaging techniques was conducted across various environments to evaluate distribution.
• Highlights the necessity for improved strategies to assess risks of plastic exposure to health and the environment.
