MMMd Sabir Ahmed MondolMAMehvish AyoubUAUbaida Akbar

Key Points

  • This research aims to examine the links between microplastic contamination in food processing and its health implications.
  • Review literature on microplastics in food processing and packaging
  • Assess contamination pathways for microplastics
  • Analyze implications for human health and sustainability
  • Microplastics have been identified in various food processing environments
  • Health risks associated with exposure to microplastics remain inadequately understood
  • The need for integrated approaches to address sustainability and food safety is highlighted

Abstract

Microplastics (MPs) have rapidly emerged as a critical food safety and environmental challenge, yet their links with food processing, packaging, and human health remain insufficiently integrated in the literature.
