[ 2 ] - Investigation of microplastic contamination in the gastrointestinal tract of some species of caught fish from Oman Sea

Background and Objective: Marine pollution is growing due to human activities. Continuous increase in plastic production and poor management of plastic waste resulted in a significant increase of this contaminant in aquatic environments. This in turn led to the widespread presence of Microplastics (MPs) with a size of less than 5mm. Materials and Methods: In this study, frequency, distribution...

[ 3 ] - Study of Micro-plastic contamination in five species of prevailing fishes of Chabahar Bay, (Sistan and Baluchestan Province)

The global demand for plastics is increasing due to it wide applications. About 60 to 80 percent of the waste of the marine environment belong to plastic class. There is a lack of information and research on the presence of plastic and micro-plastic contamination in aquatic animals, The present study, therefore examined the frequency, distribution, size, color and type of micro-plastic (MPS) in...
