In an extensive exploration of microplastics within soil environments, our study aims to investigate the presence, spread, and ecological impact in soil, focusing on Makassar City, Indonesia. Using a Sinher binocular digital microscope, we visually examined samples Petri dishes, measuring microplastic sizes with Image-J software. Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy was also employed for additional identification analysis polymer compositions. Our research uncovered widespread presence across diverse types land uses, including residential, fishpond, agricultural, landfill, coastal, bareland areas. The concentration these found be between 16.6 21.9 particles/gram, showing consistency most some variations coastal We noted significant variety forms, predominantly fragments films, different uses. A wide range colors observed, blue, green, red, transparent. Polyethylene (PE) polypropylene (PP) were identified as predominant polymers. highlights non-uniform distribution suggesting potential impacts organisms wider ecosystem. These findings underscore critical need more comprehensive implications environments. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2024-010-04-017 Full Text: PDF

Microplastic (MP) (plastic <5 mm) pollution in South Africa is widespread but few studies have been done catchments and estuaries of the country. The aim this study was to investigate abundance, characteristics risks posed by microplastics Zandvlei Catchment Estuary Cape Town, Africa. Water sediment were sampled between 2019 2021, during wet dry seasons, MPs extracted identified using microscopy fourier-transformed infrared spectrophotometry (FTIR) analyses. MP abundances 70.23 ± 7.36 (standard error) MPs/Kg dw 2.62 0.41 MP/L water samples for period. Lower reaches catchment upper estuary can be considered sinks contamination as these sites recorded higher abundances. mainly transparent fibres smaller than 0.5 mm. Polyethylene (46%) followed polypropylene (16%) most common polymers recorded. Pollution load indices categorised dangerous both sediment. polymer risk ranged from moderate very high water. categories (catchment sediment) low Ecological assessments hence indicated that mostly poses a threat ecological health studied.
