Third meeting of the BioPlast4SAFE project

The third meeting of the BioPlast4SAFE project, "Biomonitoring of biodegradable micro- and nanoplastics: from the environment to humans in a one-health perspective," was held on October 15th in Naples.
BioPlast4SAFE promotes the study of the characteristics, fate, and potential toxicological and ecotoxicological effects of plastics, with a specific focus on biodegradable polymers as a potential strategy for mitigating plastic pollution. The overall objective is to improve the quality, scope, and efficiency of risk assessments for human health and the environment related to products derived from the plastics industry, with the potential for environmental and health impact assessments.
