Microplastic pollution, a threat to marine ecosystem and human health: a short review
S Sharma, S Chatterjee�- Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2017 - Springer
Human populations are using oceans as their household dustbins, and microplastic is one
of the components which are not only polluting shorelines but also freshwater bodies
globally. Microplastics are generally referred to particles with a size lower than 5 mm. These
microplastics are tiny plastic granules and used as scrubbers in cosmetics, hand cleansers,
air-blasting. These contaminants are omnipresent within almost all marine environments at
present. The durability of plastics makes it highly resistant to degradation and through�…
