Abstract in brief

  • The study investigates microplastics in 21 samples of Spanish table salt, including sea salt and well salt, revealing microplastic levels ranging from 50 to 280 particles per kilogram, with PET being the most common polymer.
  • Findings show no significant differences in microplastic contamination between different types of salt or packaging, suggesting a consistent background presence of microplastics in the environment.
  • The research highlights inconsistencies in previous studies and errors in experimental methods, emphasizing the widespread and persistent contamination of sea products by microplastics, which poses environmental and health concerns.
