Microplastic Contamination: An Introduction to an Emerging Issue
Summary
This review examines microplastics as emerging environmental pollutants, covering their persistence in the environment, accumulation in aquatic organisms, and the need for standardized detection and monitoring approaches to address growing contamination concerns.
Microplastics (MPs) are environmental pollutants of emerging concern because they do not degrade easily in the environment, persist for long periods, and can accumulate in aquatic organisms. Given these environmental threats, there is a need to gain a basic understanding and accurate and clear information on this hot topic.
