Summary

This review surveys analytical methods used to identify and quantify chemicals associated with marine microplastics, covering extraction techniques, spectroscopic approaches, and the challenges of characterizing the complex mixture of polymer additives and adsorbed contaminants.

Analytical approaches and methods applied to the chemical analysis of microplastics and plastic debris from the marine environment were reviewed.
