Reports on Collection, Identification and Estimation of Microplastic in Freshwater Bodies
Summary
Researchers compiled methods and findings for collecting, identifying, and quantifying microplastics in freshwater bodies, reviewing their growing prevalence as an emerging threat to aquatic fauna and human drinking water. The paper underscores the need for standardized monitoring protocols to accurately assess freshwater microplastic contamination.
Microplastics (MP) are plastic materials whose particle size is less than 5 μm. MP are pervasive and are an emerging threat to fauna and flora. MPs are now being found in fresh water sources and this has a threat on the wellbeing of human beings. To...
