Summary

Researchers reviewed the sampling, detection, and characterization methods used to identify microplastics in water, sediment, and biological tissue samples. Standardized, reliable techniques are critical for generating comparable data across studies, which is necessary to accurately assess the true extent of microplastic contamination in ecosystems and living organisms.

Study Type Environmental

Water systems are closely coupled with the terrestrial environment; they provide a key pathway for the infiltration of pollutants. Microplastics (MPs) are widely acknowledged as a dangerous threat to all forms of life. Overuse, improper release, and mismanagement of...
