Toxicological effects of microplastic fibers from different disposable face masks on Caenorhabditis elegans

Toxicological effects of microplastic fibers from different disposable face masks on Caenorhabditis elegans

During the COVID-19 pandemic, the widespread use of disposable face masks generated substantial waste, much of which ends up in terrestrial environments. However, the impact of this discarded material on soil ecosystems remains poorly understood. This study investigated the toxicological effects of...
