Each (microplastics and tire wear particles) can leach other pollutants that have been found to be toxic to aquatic biota.
“Furthermore, each can leach other pollutants that have been found to be toxic to aquatic biota (Corcoran, 2022; Pramanik et al., 2020).”

Microplastics and tire wear particles have unique morphologies and surface characteristics that may sorb other pollutants.
“and unique morphologies and surface characteristics that may sorb other pollutants (Cherniak et al., 2022; Corcoran, 2022; Pramanik et al., 2020; Rochman et al., 2022).”

As plastic waste breaks down into microplastics, the particles and chemicals become more biologically available and digestible for humans and organisms, presenting a significant risk to human and ecological health.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
