AB  - Human ingestion of microplastics (MPs) is common and inevitable due to the widespread contamination of food items, but implications on the gastric digestion of food proteins are still unknown. In this study, the interactions between pepsin and polystyrene (PS) MPs were evaluated by investigating enzyme activity and conformation in a simulated human gastric environment in the presence or absence of PS MPs. The impact on food digestion was also assessed by monitoring the kinetics of protein hydrolysis through static in vitro gastric digestion of cow's milk contaminated with PS. The binding of pepsin to PS showed that the surface chemistry of MPs dictates binding affinity. The key contributor to pepsin adsorption seems to be π−π interactions between the aromatic residues and the PS phenyl rings. During quick exposure (10 min) of pepsin to increasing concentrations (222, 2219, 22188 particles/mL) of 10 μm PS (PS10) and 100 μm PS (PS100), total enzymatic activities were not affected remarkably. However, upon prolonged exposure at 1 and 2 h, preferential binding of pepsin to the small, low zeta-potential PS caused structural changes in the protein which led to a significant reduction of its activity. Digestion of cow's milk mixed with PS10 resulted in transient accumulation of larger peptides (10–35 kDa) and reduced bioavailability of short peptides (2–9 kDa) in the gastric phase. This, however, was only observed at extremely high PS10 concentration (0.3 mg/mL or 5.46E+05 particles/mL). The digestion of milk peptides, bound preferentially over pepsin within the hard corona on the PS10 surface, was delayed up to 15 min in comparison to bulk protein digestion. Intact caseins, otherwise rapidly digested, remained bound to PS10 in the hard corona for up to 15 min. This work presents valuable insights regarding the interaction of MPs, food proteins, and pepsin, and their dynamics during gastric digestion.

AB  - The accumulation of microplastics in marine organisms is an emerging concern. Due to trophic transfer, the
safety of seafood is under investigation in view of the potential negative effects of microplastics on human health.
In this study, market samples of Manila clams (Ruditapes philippinarum) from South Korea were segregated into
two groups of considerably different size (p < 0.05), namely small clams with shell length of 40.69 ± 3.97 mm,
and large clams of shell length 51.19 ± 2.86 mm. Comparative profiling of the number, size, shape, and polymer
type of microplastics were performed using μFTIR imaging and Nile red staining. Overall, μFTIR detected only
1559 microplastics while 1996 microplastics were counted based on staining from 61 Manila clams (30 small and
31 large), leading to an overestimation of 18 to 75 %. Comparable microplastics concentration, based on μFTIR,
were observed at 2.70 ± 1.66 MP/g or 15.64 ± 9.25 MP/individual for the small samples, and 3.65 ± 1.59 MP/g
or 41.63 ± 16.90 MP/individual for the large ones (p > 0.05). Particle diameters of 20–100 μm was the most
dominant, accounting for 44.6 % and 46.5 % of all microplastics from the small and large groups, respectively.
Particles, with a circularity (resemblance to a circle) value between 0.6 and 1.0, were the most prevalent, fol-
lowed by fragments and fibers. At least 50 % of microplastics from the small and large samples were polystyrene,
making it the most abundant polymer type. Despite the substantial difference in the size of the animals, only a
weak to moderate correlation was observed between microplastics content and the physical attributes of the
clams such as shell length and weight, (soft) tissue weight, and total weight (Spearman's coefficient < 0.5). The
estimated intake of microplastics by the Korean population was 1232 MP/person/year via small clams, 1663 MP/
person/year via large clams, and 1489 MP/person/year via clams independent of size.

AB  - The prevalence of microplastics (MP) pollution in
different zones of the environment has been
established by several studies [1]. Due to its
widespread presence, MP have found its way into
food items. Fish, shellfish, water, milk, salt, and
sugar are just some examples of the food we
commonly consume that are contaminated with MP
[2]. Human ingestion of MP is already well-established
but there is limited data regarding how
MP affect human gastric digestion of food
components, especially proteins.
In this study, we investigated the effects of
polystyrene (PS) MP on pepsin, the major protease
in human gastric digestion. Pepsin activity was
tested during exposure to two different sizes -10 μm
(PS10) and 100 μm (PS100), and three different
quantities- low count (142 particles), moderate
count (1420 particles), and high count
(14200 particles), of PS using haemoglobin as
substrate. Results showed that exposure to PS100
has no effect on enzyme activity. However,
exposure to high count PS10 considerably reduced
pepsin activity from 2957 ± 310 U/mg to 1674 ± 270
U/mg.
To test the effect on food digestion, high count
PS10 was added to a sample of commercially
available liquid bovine milk (defatted). In this case,
the static in vitro simulation of gastric digestion was
followed to mimic human digestion of food [3].
Milk digesta at different time points (5, 10, 15, 20,
30, 60, 90, 120 minutes) were obtained to monitor
the progress of protein degradation.
SDS-PAGE showed no difference in the peptide
bands from 30-120 minutes. However, bands
corresponding to caseins were not observed at 5
minutes when PS10 was present. Additionally,
14 kDa fragments were not observed at 10-20
minutes.
Washing of the PS particles followed by SDSPAGE
revealed a faint pepsin band from all time
points. At 5 and 10 minutes, faint peptide bands
>10kDa were also observed. These suggest that
pepsin and some milk peptides were adsorbed on
the surface of PS10. Zeta potential analysis of PS
revealed a slightly negative surface charge which
could explain the adsorption and disappearance of
peptide bands. This adsorption of pepsin on PS did
not seem to affect its overall protease activity.
However, the interaction of milk peptides with PS
may reduce the nutrients human could acquire from
milk.
