Characterization of the Differences in Dissolved Organic Matter (DOM) Adsorbed on Five Kinds of Microplastics Using Multiple Methods by Xianshu Fu, Xiangliang Pan, Jun Chen, Mingzhou Zhang, Zihong Ye, Xiaoping Yu

“…This paper comparatively assessed the extraction efficiency of DOM from MPs with various solvents by using total organic carbon (TOC), culminating in the development of a sodium pyrophosphate-NaOH solution extraction method optimized for DOM. The morphology, material and environmental medium of microplastics were the three primary factors affecting the adsorption of DOM on microplastics, with the highest enrichment ratio of 1.4–1.8 times for extruded polyethylene microplastics (EPE-MPs) characterized by their porous structure in the flowing water environment. …”
