International Conference on Microplastic Toxicity and Ecological Risk Assessment (ICMTERA - 27)

This session will explore the underlying mechanisms of microplastic toxicity at the cellular and molecular levels. Emphasis will be placed on oxidative stress, endocrine disruption, and bioaccumulation pathways.

This track will focus on the development and application of ecological risk assessment frameworks specific to microplastic pollution. Participants will discuss methodologies for evaluating environmental exposure and hazard evaluation.

This session will review current methodologies for assessing aquatic toxicity related to microplastics. It will highlight laboratory assays and field studies that measure the impact on various trophic levels.

This track will investigate the interactions between microplastics and sediment in aquatic environments. Discussions will include the implications for bioavailability and ecosystem vulnerability.

This session will examine the sensitivity of different species to microplastic exposure. Research findings will be presented on how various organisms respond to microplastic contamination.

This track will delve into dose-response studies that elucidate the relationship between microplastic concentration and toxic effects. Participants will share insights on thresholds and responses observed in various biological models.
