Microparticle, Mesoplastic, Method, Nanoparticle, Plastic, TrendsAbstract
This research article presents a comprehensive bibliographic review on sampling methods applied to the assessment of microplastics in river ecosystems. The escalating concern surrounding microplastic contamination in aquatic environments necessitates rigorous sampling approaches. The primary aim of this study is to critically evaluate existing methodologies while highlighting their strengths and limitations. By examining conventional and emerging sampling techniques, the review endeavors to provide recommendations for refining future investigations. Through a meticulous analysis of past research, this study aims to enhance the understanding of microplastic presence in river systems.
