TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the concentration, biological risks, chemical speciation, and mobility of heavy metals and also the determination of their distribution, physicochemical characteristics, and abundance of microplastics in coastal sediments and edible bivalves in the Persian Gulf, the coastal area of Hormozgan Province.
38 citations
TL;DR: The health risk indices suggest that exposure to PAHs through bivalve consumption does not impose harmful health effects upon consumers.

TL;DR: In this article, a review of various sources of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) including source identification techniques, bioavailability, and interactions of PAHs with soils and sediments is presented.
93 citations
TL;DR: In this article , the first results on MP and PAE levels in the urban runoff into the northern part of the Persian Gulf during the dry season were presented, and the results showed that urban runoff is a main source of microplastic contaminants that are discharged into the Persian gulf.

TL;DR: In this article, the first results on MP and PAE levels in the urban runoff into the northern part of the Persian Gulf during the dry season were presented, and the results showed that urban runoff is a main source of microplastic and phthalate acid esters contamination.
53 citations
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors provided the first information on the levels of microplastics (MPs) and phthalate esters (PAEs) in the fresh landfill leachate of Bushehr port during different seasons.

TL;DR: In this article , the authors investigated the concentration, distribution, fate and chemical composition of microplastics in urban and industrial soils of Ahvaz metropolis, SW Iran, and found that microfibres (white-transparent and < 250 μm) were the most abundant MPs found in urban (70%) and industrial (55%) soils.
