Published: Feb. 8, 2024

Microplastics (MPs) are synthetic contaminants that have received global attention due to their ubiquitous occurrence, extreme durability, and capacity harm ecosystems human health. This study investigated the occurrence of MPs in three fish species (Channa striata, Puntius sophore Anabas testudineus) collected from two locations (Ashulia Bridge Mirpur Road) Turag River, which flows alongside Dhaka city, Bangladesh. abundance (items/individuals) was highest Channa striata (3.8 ± 0.6) Ashulia area lowest (1.8 0.4) Road area. Fiber found be most dominant (89–93%) form followed by fragments (21–35%), films (0–26%) foams (0–5%). The color blue (69–83%), then red (20–33%), black (11–14%), green (8–20%), purple (6–8%). majority (56–71%) assessed were <0.5 mm size, 0.5–1.0 (29–33%) 1–5 (38–53%). ATR-FTIR examination revealed specific polymer varieties - PP (40%), PS (30%) LDPE (30%). results this provided a baseline pollution one major protein sources freshwater fishes raised concern on public health particularly who consume urban waterways.

Microplastics in the Marine Ecosystems: Identification and Impacts

Environmental Claims Journal, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: unknown, P. 1 - 30

Published: Jan. 7, 2025

Microplastics (MPs) are a class of contaminants that emerging in our environment as consequence the increased manufacture and consumption plastics. MPs (<5mm) may originate from both primary secondary sources. Primary microplastics produced within MP size range, but when larger plastic particles fragment end up aquatic, terrestrial, atmospheric environments. Due to their durability potential harm humans, they cause environmental health concerns. Recent studies suggests climate change, directly indirectly is linked microplastics. While growing concern microplastic pollution continues be explored globally, fewer India asserts urgency conducting more studies. Existing Indian context cover different matrices environment, (terrestrial aquatic ecosystems) on east west coasts India, with focusing marine ecosystems. As coastal regions subsequently increasing requirement comprehensive review paper will soon need hour. The goal this provide current status research conducted by framing panoramic literature available scientific work conducted. This further lay foundation for categorizing quantitative help community thoroughly have access information require Besides, also focuses identifying lacunas existing throws light comprehending intricate loop, which demands interdisciplinary investigation intervention.
