Abstract Plastic pollution in the form of microplastics (MPs), poses a significant threat to natural ecosystems, with detrimental ecological, social, and economic impacts. This review paper aims provide an overview existing research on interaction between microbial biofilms MPs environments. The begins by outlining sources types MPs, emphasizing their widespread presence marine, freshwater, terrestrial ecosystems. It then discusses formation characteristics surfaces, highlighting role altering physicochemical properties facilitating processes such as vertical transport, biodegradation, dispersion microorganisms, gene transfer. Different methods used assess these interactions are discussed, including microbiological characterization. Current gaps challenges understanding complex relationships identified, need for further elucidate mechanisms underlying develop effective mitigation strategies. Innovative solutions, bioremediation techniques combination other strategies, nanotechnology, advanced filtration technologies, public awareness campaigns, proposed promising approaches address issue pollution. Overall, this underscores urgent multidisciplinary approach combating pollution, combining scientific research, technological innovation, engagement safeguard health integrity
