Microbial deterioration of stone monuments--an updated overview

TL;DR: A critical review of work on microbial biofilms on buildings of historic interest, including recent innovations resulting from molecular biology, is presented and microbial activities causing degradation are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nanoplastics in aquatic systems - are they more hazardous than microplastics?

TL;DR: This review aims to provide an updated overview of this emerging topic, reviewing the literature mainly from 2018 onwards and considering the effects of nanoplastics on ecosystems, their uptake and transport of polluting molecules, and the challenges that are faced by workers in this area.
Journal ArticleDOI

Microplastics and attached microorganisms in sediments of the Vitória bay estuarine system in SE Brazil

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the concentration of microplastic in the benthic sediment of Vitoria Bay estuarine system (SVB), SE Brazil, using scanning electron micrographs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Paint fragments as polluting microplastics: A brief review.

TL;DR: This review discusses detection, characteristics, sources and ecological effects of paint fragments in the authors' oceans, as well as the abundance of Paint fragments in MP samples around the world and their colonization by marine microorganisms, which differs from that of non-paint MPs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biogenic black crusts on buildings in unpolluted environments.

TL;DR: Analysis of peeling black crusts from modern and historic buildings in Campeche, Mexico, from a gravestone on the island of Dom Khon, Lao, and from the Anglican cathedral in Belize City demonstrate that, unlike chemically formed thickBlack crusts found in polluted atmospheres, thinblack crusts in clean environments may be predominantly composed of filamentous cyanobacteria.
