Today, nano textiles are employed in various sectors such as sports, healthcare, and protection.

The first part lays down the basics of nanoparticles’ toxicology while stressing that future studies must fully characterize nanoparticles and how they interact, become bioactive, and pose threats to humans and the environment. This review article discusses the environmental and safety aspects of nanomaterials while incorporating in textiles. The current regulations regarding nanomaterials in textiles such as REACH (Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation, and Restriction of Chemicals), EPA (Environmental Protection Agency), and OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) highlight the need for processes covering and measuring nanoparticles is focused. Also, it considers the integration of green nanotechnology, provides recommendations for the safe usage of nanotechnology to eradicate negative outcomes on the environment, and suggests the use of natural and recyclable items.

Recent studies suggest that NBC extracts heavy metals, organic contaminants, and other hazardous materials, often surpassing traditional biochar and other nanomaterials.

This work aims to analyze hospital effluents from two prefectural hospitals in the southwest region of Morocco (Temara-Sale towns) by assessing the microbiological quality and diversity of antibiotic-resistant bacteria in these effluents collected via weekly spot sampling.

This article reviews the current literature of MPs focusing on urban freshwater ecosystems, often overlooked in favor of marine settings. It uniquely addresses the sources, pathways, and biomagnification of MPs in these environments, linking ecological effects to public health, and advocating for collaborative stakeholder action and innovative management strategies. This holistic approach provides a comprehensive view of MP pollution in urban contexts where aquatic organisms can ingest MPs present in these freshwater ecosystems and move through the food chain thus ultimately reaching the human body. The effects of MPs on the food chain are examined, particularly how they accumulate in organisms, transfer between different levels of the food chain, and increase in concentration as they move up through different trophic levels. To successfully tackle MP contamination, it pushes for collaborative action among stakeholders, including researchers, policymakers, and the community. It calls for enhanced research efforts to fill existing knowledge gaps and develop innovative management strategies to mitigate the impacts of MPs.
