Summary of the Microplastic and Seafood: Human Health Symposium

Current findings show microplastic levels in seafood are significantly less than what is likely to be consumed from other sources. Microplastic levels in seafood are significantly less than what is likely to be consumed from other sources (e.g., air we breathe, water). There are currently very limited studies investigating microplastic presence in other consumable meats (lamb, poultry, beef etc). More research is needed in this area to allow seafood to be put in context of other food sources.
