Systematic Meta-analysis of Microplastic Concentrations in Aqueous Ecosystems

AIJR Abstracts 2021
Alina Zehra, Sadasivam Anbumani

Summary

This meta-analysis compiles data on microplastic concentrations measured across different water environments worldwide. The findings help establish baseline levels of microplastic contamination in the aquatic systems that supply our drinking water and seafood, providing important context for understanding how much microplastic exposure humans may face through these sources.
