Microplastics release from victuals packaging materials during daily usage

Plastic packaging materials are widely used because of their advantages light weight, low cost, and convenience, especially as victuals materials. Approximately 146 million metric tons plastics were for in 2015, but most these had already been discarded followed by serious white pollution. What's worse, the materials, polystyrene (PS) foam containers, can release microplastics (MPs) during daily usage. Through combination various appropriate chemical (eg, spectroscopy) physical microscopy) characterization analysis, existence MPs is proved be intuitively observed. Although impacts on ecosystems human health still under discussion, existing studies have shown that integrated into habitats through soil transportation, affecting terrestrial invertebrates. Faced with this shocking reality, reducing use PS containers at high temperatures developing healthy to substitute promising solutions.
