Summary
This Japanese study investigated microplastic pollution in seafloor sediments off the coast of Funabashi City. Microplastics were detected in the seabed sediments, raising concerns about their persistence and potential to adsorb toxic chemicals in nearshore coastal environments.
近年，マイクロプラスチック(5mm未満のプラスチック，以下：MPs)の海洋汚染に世界中で注目が集まっている．海洋へ流出したMPsは毒性の強い化学物質を吸着しやすい特性や難溶解性が強いものが多いことから中長期的な問題として懸念されている．
