| Summary, etc. |
Plastics are major environmental contaminants, especially in aquatic<br/>environments. This study sought to investigate microplastic contamination in Male<br/>Mackerel Scad (Decapterus macarellus) from Metro Manila's wet markets. Microplastics<br/>(MPs) such as polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), and polystyrene (PS) pose<br/>significant risks to human health and marine life when ingested. To improve the isolation<br/>of microplastics in various protocols by alkaline digestion using 10% potassium<br/>hydroxide (KOH), the use of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) was employed. The study<br/>aimed to assess the digestion efficiency and percent recovery of KOH and SDS digestion<br/>at different concentrations, temperatures, and time. The optimization of the digestion<br/>method was conducted on the Gastrointestinal Tract, and Fish Meat of Mackerel Scad<br/>sourced at several markets in Metro Manila served as the limitation of the study.<br/>Attenuated Total Reflectance-Fourier Transform Infrared (ATR-FTIR) Spectroscopy and<br/>Optical Microscopy were used in the characterization, identification, and chemical<br/>analysis of MPs. Additionally, this research aimed to advance the knowledge about<br/>microplastic prevalence in the local fish distribution network. The result served as a<br/>valuable key in optimizing and establishing a standard protocol for microplastic isolation. |
