Polyethylene terephthalate is a common plastic in many products such as viscose rayon for clothing, and packaging material in the food and beverage industries. Polyethylene terephthalate has beneficial properties such as light weight, high tensile strength, transparency and gas barrier. Nonetheless, there is actually increasing concern about plastic pollution and toxicity. Here we review the properties, occurrence, toxicity, remediation and analysis of polyethylene terephthalate as macroplastic, mesoplastic, microplastic and nanoplastic. Polyethylene terephthalate occurs in groundwater, drinking water, soils and sediments. Plastic uptake by humans induces diseases such as reducing migration and proliferation of human mesenchymal stem cells of bone marrow and endothelial progenitor cells. Polyethylene terephthalate can be degraded by physical, chemical and biological methods.
聚对苯二甲酸乙二酯是许多产品中常见的塑料，如用于服装的粘胶人造丝，以及食品和饮料行业的包装材料。聚对苯二甲酸乙二酯具有重量轻、拉伸强度高、透明度高和气体阻隔性等有益特性。尽管如此，人们实际上对塑料污染和毒性的担忧日益增加。在此，我们综述了聚对苯二甲酸乙二酯作为大塑料、中塑料、微塑料和纳米塑料的特性、存在情况、毒性、修复和分析。聚对苯二甲酸乙二酯存在于地下水、饮用水、土壤和沉积物中。人体摄入塑料会引发疾病，如减少骨髓间充质干细胞和内皮祖细胞的迁移和增殖。聚对苯二甲酸乙二酯可以通过物理、化学和生物方法降解。
