“…Concerns of marine organism-derived microplastic and human health were extensively reviewed when microplastics began emerging as a potential threat to ecosystems (Thompson et al 2009b;Talsness et al 2009). Microplasticinduced toxicity and the evaluation of consequences for human health have been the focus of current literature (Revel et al 2018). These concerns are magnified due to the presence of microplastic particles in food items worldwide.…”

“…Entre 1950 e 2016, a produção passou de 1,7 para 322 milhões de toneladas, sendo a Europa, produtora de 57 milhões de toneladas no ano de 2012 (PLASTIC EUROPE, 2017;REVEL et al, 2018). Dados de 2016 da Plastics Europe Market Research Group (PEMRG) e Conversion Market & Strategy GmbH, mostram os principais setores, em que há maior demanda de plásticos na Europa, tendo em vista que as embalagens correspondem ao maior percentual (39,9%), seguido de construções (19,7%), indústria automotiva (10%), indústria elétrica e eletrônicos (6,2%), produtos de uso pessoal (4,2%), agricultura (3,3%) e outros (16,7%) (PLASTICS EUROPE, 2017).…”

“…Embora várias pesquisas comprovem os efeitos tóxicos sobre os organismos, estudos eventuais sobre os impactos tóxicos dos nano e microplásticos na saúde humana têm sido limitados (REVEL et al, 2018). No entanto, alguns estudos mostram que os nanoplásticos e microplásticos têm potencial para afetar direta ou indiretamente a saúde.…”
