Abstract (AI)
Microplastic debris (<5 mm) is a prolific environmental pollutant, found worldwide in marine, freshwater and terrestrial ecosystems. This review assesses the numerous different methods used to identify microplastics ingested by marine organisms.
Key Findings
1
Methodological variation is a central issue in assessing microplastics consumed by fish and invertebrates.
2
Microplastic debris smaller than 5 mm is a widespread pollutant across marine, freshwater, and terrestrial ecosystems.
3
The review evaluates diverse methods for sampling, isolating, and identifying microplastics ingested by marine organisms.
