| Abstract | Microplastics (MPs), small sized plastic particles of <5 mm, are ubiquitous in marine environment. MPs pollution in marine water due to anthropogenic activities is a global concern. In recent years, adverse effects of MPs on human and aquatic life forms were reported. It is highly important to obtain a comprehensive understanding of MPs and its impact on environment and human health. Identification and separation of MPs from marine environment is highly challenging due to their complex physicochemical properties. This mini review elaborates on the emerging techniques used for characterization of MPs and the advancements in the removal methods. |
