• Marine litter plastics and microplastics and their toxic chemicals components: the need for urgent preventive measures (2018, background): “It is remarkable that benthic microplastics are far more widespread than previously assumed, with accumulation trends matching the increasing production of plastics worldwide [1, 15, 20].”
• Occurrence and ingestion of microplastics by zooplankton in Kenya's marine environment: first documented evidence (2018, background): “…synthetic fibres released from textiles as a result of washing clothes, and other plastics that come into the environment in intact form are called primary microplastics (Zhao et al. 2014; Alomar et al. 2016; Avio et al. 2017; Maes et al. 2017; Rodríguez-Seijo and Pereira 2017; Zobkov et al. 2017).”
