Introduction The LOMP Small Particle Taskforce is focused on developing a reliable and rigorous procedure for analyzing small microplastics in environmental samples. Our primary aim is to ensure that the data we generate accurately reflects the true microplastic population present in each sample. Achieving this requires careful attention to representativeness, verification, and contamination control throughout…
