Marine Microplastic Insulation and Characterization Techniques
Summary
Researchers reviewed the techniques used to isolate and characterize microplastics in marine environments, covering methods from physical separation to spectroscopic identification. Accurate detection and characterization are foundational to understanding the true scale of ocean plastic pollution and designing effective cleanup strategies.
Microplastics (MPs), viz. nanoscale size plastic particles less than 5 mm in size, have emerged as a significant concern in the marine environment due to their ubiquitous presence and detrimental impact on aquatic ecosystems. It is estimated that there are...
