Characterization Research Progress of Microplastic in Water
From high altitude to deep sea,from human body to microorganisms,microplastics are now shown themselves everywhere.The toxic effects of microplastics on organisms have been preliminarily confirmed.Therefore,their prevention and control have begun to attract people's attention.However,as a newly emerging pollutant,research on microplastics is still in its infancy.Learning the source and accurately detecting methods of microplastics in the environment is a prerequisite for their prevention and control.The author briefly summarized the sources and distribution of microplastics in water bodies,as well as the main detection methods currently used.The advantages and disadvantages of each detection method are evaluated,with the aim of providing reference for establishing the standards for microplastics detection and achieving the control of microplastics pollution.
