Microplastic is a significant global problem. The rapid screening of environmental matter highly beneficial to the efficient detection, analysis and mapping microplastic pollution, however many current laboratory techniques test samples are time-consuming often involve hazardous chemicals. SEM-based automated mineralogy (AM) uniquely powerful tool for quantifying chemical, mineral textural prop...

Abstract Microplastic particle concentration at the sea surface is critical for quantifying microplastic transport across water-air interface. Previous studies suggest that enhanced compared to bulk concentration, yet little known about detailed mechanisms behind this enhancement. In work, we model one particular process in simulation may contribute concentration: bubble scavenging. Using latti...

This research investigated the abundance and type of microplastic pollution in Telebralia collected at mangrove forest Pulau Panjang. In total 60 consist 30 palustris sulcata were collected. The soft tissue was extracted with HNO3 65% for 24 hour mixed NaCl solution. Samples observed under binocular microscope further analysis done. Microplastic pollutions detected all species Telebralia. Most ...

Microplastic pollution in snow was investigated top of the Amanos Mountain Hatay region, southern Turkey. Snow samples were collected from four stations located different heights and fronts mountain. Abundance microplastic ranged 10.5 to 16 MP per liter a total 519 particles (MPs) identified samples. The majority fiber (>99%), black color 0.5 – 2.5 mm (62%) size class polyester (35%). This i...

Microplastics (MPs) have infected fish, crustaceans, and mollusks, among other marine fisheries products. This investigation was to determine the microplastic content of gills, musscle, intestines Grouper ( Genus epinephelus ) in Pasar Bengkulu, Indonesia. study conducted July-August 2022 with a random sample 25 participants. At Laboratory Fisheries Marine Science Univerisity microplastics were...

Marine macrophytes are hypothesized to be a major temporary sink for microplastics. In this study, microplastic contamination was investigated in 15 macroalgal species and one seagrass from different sites two lagoons of the northern Adriatic Sea: Goro lagoon Venice lagoon. A high percentage (94%) macrophyte samples contained microplastics, ranging 0.16 330 items g?1 fw, with prevalent size ran...

This preliminary study aimed to visually investigate the presence and disturbance of microplastic particles among soil aggregate fractions (1000- 2000 µm -

Microplastic ingestion by lower trophic level organisms is well known, whereas information on microplastic ingestion, egestion and accumulation top predators such as cetaceans still lacking. This study investigates microplastics in intestinal samples from harbour porpoises ( Phocoena phocoena ) found along the coastline of Schleswig-Holstein (Germany) between 2014 2018. Out 30 individuals North...

Microplastics are small particles of any kind plastic, not exceeding 5 mm. Microplastic is one the main problems today. Because these only pollute environment, but also get into living organisms, animals and, worst all, human body as a result natural circulation in nature. Thereby contribute to formation various diseases body. size microplastic we do notice how it enters our But they can be det...
