Microplastic contamination of seafood intended for human consumption: a systematic review and meta-analysis (2020)
Journal Article
Danopoulos, E., Jenner, L., Twiddy, M., & Rotchell, J. M. (2020). Microplastic contamination of seafood intended for human consumption: a systematic review and meta-analysis. Environmental Health Perspectives, 128(12), 126002-1-126002-32. https://doi.org/10.1289/EHP7171

Background: Microplastics (MPs) have contaminated all compartments of the marine environment including biota such as seafood; ingestion from such sources is one of the two major uptake routes identified for human exposure. Objectives: The objectives... Read More about Microplastic contamination of seafood intended for human consumption: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Microplastic contamination of salt intended for human consumption: a systematic review and meta-analysis (2020)
Journal Article
Danopoulos, E., Jenner, L., Twiddy, M., & Rotchell, J. M. (2020). Microplastic contamination of salt intended for human consumption: a systematic review and meta-analysis. SN Applied Sciences, 2(12), Article 1950. https://doi.org/10.1007/s42452-020-03749-0

Microplastics (MPs) are an emerging contaminant ubiquitous in the environment. There is growing concern regarding potential human health effects, a major human exposure route being dietary uptake. We have undertaken a systematic review (SR) and meta-... Read More about Microplastic contamination of salt intended for human consumption: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Microplastic contamination of drinking water: a systematic review. (2020)
Journal Article
Danopoulos, E., Twiddy, M., & Rotchell, J. M. (2020). Microplastic contamination of drinking water: a systematic review. PLoS ONE, 15(7 July), Article e0236838. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0236838

Background Microplastics (MPs) are omnipresent in the environment, including the human food chain; a likely important contributor to human exposure is drinking water. Objective To undertake a systematic review of MP contamination of drinking water... Read More about Microplastic contamination of drinking water: a systematic review..
