Identification of Microplastic in the Digestive Tracts of Mackerel Tuna, Lemuru and Sea Water from Pangandaran, Indonesia

Researchers examined the digestive tracts of mackerel tuna and lemuru fish from coastal waters in Pangandaran, Indonesia, and found microplastics in both species.

Analisis Komposisi Mikroplastik Pada Tiga Ikan Laut Ekonomis Penting dari Pelabuhan Perikanan di Jawa Timur, Indonesia

Researchers analyzed microplastic composition in the digestive tracts and organs of three economically important fish species -- Clupea harengus, Euthynnus affinis, and Restrelliger brachysoma -- collected from fishing ports in East Java, Indonesia, finding fibers and fragments as the dominant types. Clupea harengus exhibited the highest microplastic abundance, attributed to its inability to distinguish microplastics from planktonic prey.

Analisis Kandungan Mikroplastik Pada Ikan Pelagis Dan Demersal Yang Didaratkan Di Pelabuhan Perikanan Banjar Raya Banjarmasin Provinsi Kalimantan Selatan

Researchers examined microplastic contamination in both pelagic and demersal fish landed at a fishing port in South Kalimantan, Indonesia, finding an average of 8.3 microplastic particles per pelagic individual and 5.1 per demersal individual with moderate overall pollution levels. Fibres and fragments were the dominant forms detected. These findings demonstrate that commercially caught fish in Indonesian waters carry microplastics into the human food supply.

Karakteristik Mikroplastik pada Ikan Kakatua Anglu (Chlorurus sordidus) dan Ikan Kurisi Sirip Pucat (Nemipterus thosaporni) di Perairan Teluk Jakarta

Microplastics were found in the gastrointestinal tracts of two fish species with different feeding habits caught in Jakarta Bay, Indonesia, with both herbivorous parrotfish and carnivorous threadfin bream affected. The findings indicate that microplastic ingestion in Jakarta Bay fisheries is widespread across the food chain, with implications for seafood safety in the region.
