| Title: |
Microplastics abundance in selected commercial fishes from the Adriatic Sea during 2018-10-12 to 2019-03-10 (NCEI Accession 0305021) |
| Abstract: |
This study estimated the concentration of microplastics (i.e., plastics measuring less than 5mm) in selected commercial fishes from the Adriatic Sea during 2018-10-12 to 2019-03-10. Samples were purchased from a hypermarket in Ferrara, Italy. Information collected include fork length, wet weight, total number of microplastic particles per individual fish and number of microplastic particles per fish wet weight. This dataset contains the results from all 6 fish species, in a spreadsheet format. |
