Rapid methods for the quantification of ingested nano-and microplastics in marine fish by imaging flow cytometry

Puntos clave

• Quantification of ingested nano- and microplastics reveals significant levels in marine fish.
• Imaging flow cytometry detected both nano- and microplastics, with various sizes traced.
• Assessment using imaging flow cytometry on marine specimens sheds light on microplastic levels.
• Findings highlight the urgent need to assess environmental impacts of plastic pollution in marine ecosystems.
