The Presence of Microplastics in the Gills and Gastrointestinal Tract of Mackerel (Rastrelliger Kanagurta Cuvier, 1816) from Jakarta Bay, Indonesia

Researchers examined microplastic contamination in the gills and gastrointestinal tracts of 120 mackerel (Rastrelliger kanagurta) from Jakarta Bay, Indonesia, characterizing particle types, sizes, and colors. All fish contained microplastics, with fragments being most prevalent followed by fibers and films, particles smaller than 0.1 mm and black-colored particles dominating both tissues, and no significant difference in microplastic abundance between sampling locations.

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. Mackerel tuna contained mostly fragment-type microplastics while lemuru had primarily fiber-type particles, with polypropylene and polyester identified as the dominant polymer types. The study highlights the extent of microplastic contamination in commercially important fish species and the potential for human exposure through seafood consumption.

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.

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.

Abundance and characteristics of microplastics in commercial marine fish from Malaysia

Microplastics were found in the digestive tracts of eight commercially important marine fish species caught in Malaysian waters, with prevalence and particle types varying by species and location. The study raises food safety concerns for Malaysian seafood consumers and highlights the widespread occurrence of microplastic ingestion in wild-caught fish from Southeast Asian seas.

The presence of microplastics in the digestive tract of commercial fishes off Pantai Indah Kapuk coast, Jakarta, Indonesia

Commercial fish from nine species collected at the Pantai Indah Kapuk coast in Jakarta were dissected for microplastics, with 97.13% of 174 fish containing an average of ~12 particles per individual dominated by fibers and fragments of PE, PP, and PS. The study documents near-universal microplastic contamination in urban coastal fisheries in Indonesia with implications for seafood consumers.

Kajian Mikroplastik Pada Ikan Ekonomis di Pasar Tradisional Kota Palu

Researchers sampled fish sold at four traditional markets in Palu City, Indonesia, and found microplastics in the digestive systems of two commonly eaten species: mackerel (Rastrelliger kanagurta) contained plastic flakes, while rabbitfish (Siganus canaliculatus) contained both flakes and fibers at higher concentrations. Because these fish are widely consumed locally, the findings raise direct concerns about human dietary exposure to microplastics through seafood.
