ClearMicroplastics in Grouper Fish (Genera Epinephelus) Gastrointestinal Tract from Pramuka Island, Seribu Islands, Indonesia
Researchers analyzed microplastics in the gastrointestinal tracts of four grouper species and surrounding sediment from Pramuka Island, Indonesia, finding 1,648 microplastic particles across 20 individual fish with fibers, fragments, and pellets all present. They found that all sampled Epinephelus groupers were contaminated with microplastics and that the bioaccumulation factor from sediment to gastrointestinal tract was low.

The study documented that microplastics enter fish bodies through both gill filtration and oral ingestion, accumulating in internal tissues.
Occurrence, distribution and characteristics of microplastics in gastrointestinal tract and gills of commercial marine fish from Malaysia
Researchers examined 158 commercial marine fish from 16 species in Malaysia and found microplastics in the gastrointestinal tracts and gills of all species studied.

Microplastic Characteristic Found in Gastrointestinal Tract of Pelagic and Demersal Fishes in Tuban, East Java
Researchers found microplastics in the gastrointestinal tracts of both pelagic and demersal fish species, documenting plastic ingestion across different feeding guilds and ocean depths. The study adds to growing evidence of widespread microplastic contamination throughout marine food webs.
Microplastic Occurrence in Different Fish Organs from Two Coastal Waters in Java Sea, Indonesia
Researchers assessed microplastic accumulation in the gut and gill tissues of six economically important fish species from Jakarta Bay and Cirebon Bay in Indonesia. They found microplastics present in all samples, with variations in abundance and polymer type across species and locations. The study raises concerns about the potential transfer of microplastics to human consumers through commercially harvested fish in the Java Sea region.
Abundance and Characteristics of Microplastics Found in The Gastrointestinal Tract of Commercial Marine Fish from Bitung, North Sulawesi – Indonesia
Researchers analyzed microplastic abundance and characteristics in the gastrointestinal tracts of commercial marine fish from Bitung, North Sulawesi, Indonesia, providing baseline contamination data for commercially important species from a major Indonesian fisheries region.
Abundance and Distribution of Microplastics in Fish by Trophic Level in Kupang Bay, Indonesia
Researchers surveyed microplastic abundance in fish from Kupang Bay, Indonesia across herbivore and carnivore trophic levels and multiple organs (GIT, gills, muscle), finding carnivores accumulated more microplastics than herbivores and gills showed the highest concentrations.
Literature Review: Microplastic Content in the Digestive Tracts of Fish in Indonesian Waters
This literature review synthesizes studies on microplastic content in the digestive tracts of fish from Indonesian waters, covering contamination levels across species, habitats, and regions. The review identifies widespread microplastic ingestion in Indonesian fisheries with implications for seafood safety and marine ecosystem health.
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.
Analisis Kandungan Mikroplastik Pada Saluran Pencernaan Ikan Di Ppi Selili Samarinda Kalimantan Timur
Researchers examined the digestive tracts of five commercially important fish species caught at a fish landing site in East Kalimantan, Indonesia, and found microplastics in all of them, with fibres and fragments being the most common types. This documents microplastic contamination in seafood from Indonesian waters and raises concerns about human dietary exposure through fish consumption.
¬Occurrence of Microplastic Ingestion by Commercial Fish Species from the Pangempang Estuary in Indonesia
Five commercially important marine fish species from the Pangempang Estuary in Indonesia were examined for microplastic ingestion, with particles found in the digestive organs of all species tested.
Microplastics abundance in four different species of commercial fishes in Bali Strait
Four commercially important fish species in the Bali Strait, Indonesia all contained microplastics in their gastrointestinal tracts, with fragments and fibers being most common. As these fish are widely consumed, this raises concerns about microplastic transfer to humans through the seafood supply chain.
Microplastic Contamination in Marine Fish and Shells in the Coastal Areas of Jember Regency, Indonesia
Researchers detected microplastic contamination in the gastrointestinal tracts of marine fish and shellfish from coastal Jember, Indonesia, finding fibers, fragments, granules, and filaments, with contamination levels varying by species and location.
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.
