Summary
Researchers assessed microplastic pollution in urban water bodies, identifying the dominant polymer types present, to improve detection methods and understand how plastic particles from city runoff and waste discharge accumulate in the waterways communities depend on.
Microplastic pollution has become a significant environmental concern globally, particularly in urban water bodies due to the discharge of plastic waste and runoff from various sources. The global distribution of microplastic, predominant polymer constituents, and...
