dc.description.abstractSeveral risks to food safety are associated with seafood. The marine environment is heavily affected by various materials, both of physical and chemical nature, which have significant impact on the safety of seafood. Recently, there has been a concerning discovery regarding seafood contamination. As it appears, there are physical hazards present, specifically in the form of nano- and micro-plastic materials. Additionally, chemicals from various sources have been detected. These chemicals are commonly used in the production of convenience goods, antimicrobials, antibiotics, heavy metals and industrial effluents. This chapter has focused on the various hazards that can influence the safety of seafood in the marine environment. It covers both physical and chemical sources of these hazards, ensuring a comprehensive understanding of the potential risks involved. There are indications that the consumption of polluted seafood in the Mediterranean region can have negative impact on human health. © 2024
