        Particulate plastics as a vector for toxic trace-element uptake by aquatic and terrestrial organisms and human health risk

        <P><B>Abstract</B></P> <P>Particulate plastics in the terrestrial and aquatic environments are small plastic fragments or beads (i.e., 5 mm down to the nanometre range). They have been frequently referred to as ‘micro-plastics’ or ‘nano-plastics’. Research has identified particulate plastics as a vector for toxic trace elements in the environment. The adsorption of toxic trace elements by particulate plastics may be facilitated by their high surface area and functionalized surfaces (e.g., through the attachment of natural organic matter). Other factors, such as environmental conditions (e.g., pH and water salinity), surface charge, and trace element oxidation status, also influence the adsorption of trace elements onto particulate plastics. Because of their small size and persistence, particulate plastics and the associated toxic trace elements are readily ingested and accumulated in many terrestrial and aquatic organisms. Thus, these plastics can have severe environmental consequences, such as the development of metal toxicity, within aquatic and terrestrial organisms. Humans could also become exposed to particulate plastics through food chain contamination and airborne ingestion. This review provides an overview of the sources of particulate plastics in the environment. To this end, we describe particulate plastics made of synthetic polymers, their origin, and characteristics with emphasis on how particulate plastics and associated toxic trace elements contaminate terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. Future research needs and strategies are discussed to help reduce the environmental risks of particulate plastics as a potent vector for the transportation of toxic trace elements.</P> <P><B>Highlights</B></P> <P> <UL> <LI> Particulate plastics include microplastics and nanoplastics. </LI> <LI> The review covers the ecological and human health impacts of particulate plastics. </LI> <LI> Trace-element-sorbed particulate plastics damage aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems. </LI> <LI> Dissolved organic matter facilitates trace element sorption onto particulate plastics. </LI> <LI> Particulate plastics pose human health threats by entering the food chain. </LI> </UL> </P> <P><B>Graphical abstract</B></P> <P>[DISPLAY OMISSION]</P>

      • Trace element dynamics of biosolids-derived microbeads

        Wijesekara, Hasintha,Bolan, Nanthi S.,Bradney, Lauren,Obadamudalige, Nadeeka,Seshadri, Balaji,Kunhikrishnan, Anitha,Dharmarajan, Rajarathnam,Ok, Yong Sik,Rinklebe, Jö,rg,Kirkham, M.B.,Vithanage, M Elsevier 2018 CHEMOSPHERE - Vol.199 No.-

        <P><B>Abstract</B></P> <P>This study focused on quantifying and characterising microbeads in biosolids (i.e., treated sewage sludge), and in examining interactions of microbeads with trace elements when biosolids are added to soil. Under laboratory conditions, batch experiments were conducted to investigate the adsorption of Cu onto pure and surface modified microbeads suspended in soil. The ecotoxicity of microbead-metal complexes to soil microbial activities was also investigated by monitoring basal respiration and dehydrogenase activity. Concentrations of the microbeads were 352, 146, 324, and 174 particles kg<SUP>−1</SUP> biosolids for ≤50, 50–100, 100–250, 250–1000 μm size fractions, respectively. The Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) images illustrated wrinkled and fractured surfaces due to degradation. The adsorption of dissolved organic matter onto microbeads was confirmed through FT-IR microscopy, while using Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometer (ICP-MS) the presence of trace metals including Cd (2.34 ng g<SUP>−1</SUP>), Cu (180.64 ng g<SUP>−1</SUP>), Ni (12.69 ng g<SUP>−1</SUP>), Pb (1.17 ng g<SUP>−1</SUP>), Sb (14.43 ng g<SUP>−1</SUP>), and Zn (178.03 ng g<SUP>−1</SUP>) was revealed. Surface modified microbeads were capable of adsorbing Cu compared to the pure microbeads, which may be attributed to the complexation of Cu with dissolved organic matter associated with the microbeads in the matrix. It was further revealed that the biosolids derived microbead-metal complexes decreased soil respiration (up to ∼ 26%) and dehydrogenase activity (up to ∼ 39%). Hence, microbeads reaching biosolids during wastewater treatment are likely to serve as a vector for trace element contamination, transportation, and toxicity when biosolids are applied to soil.</P> <P><B>Highlights</B></P> <P> <UL> <LI> Biosolids are a major source for microbeads in soil. </LI> <LI> A first-time study on microbial toxicity of biosolids-derived microbeads. </LI> <LI> Microbeads serve as a vector for transportation of trace elements in soil. </LI> <LI> Dissolved organic matter enhanced the adsorption of trace elements by microbeads. </LI> <LI> Microbeads decreased microbial respiration and dehydrogenase activity in soil. </LI> </UL> </P> <P><B>Graphical abstract</B></P> <P>[DISPLAY OMISSION]</P>
