Summary
This research characterized microplastic contamination in globally traded seafood commodities including dried shrimp, canned fish, and processed mollusks, finding particles across all product categories. Processing steps including drying, smoking, and canning contributed additional contamination beyond levels in raw ingredients, with factory environment contamination representing a critical control point for seafood microplastic levels.
