A straightforward protocol for extracting microplastics from freshwater sediment with high organic content

Extracting microplastics from sediment is critical in assessing pollution in freshwater environments. However, this process can be particularly challenging for clayey sediments with a significant organic matter content. This study proposes a simplified method for extracting microplastics from organi...
