Abstract
The findings revealed that fibre was the most prevalent type of microplastic found in Metapenaeus moyebi, while fragment was the most prevalent type in Macrobrachium rosenbergii. The majority of MPs found in Metapenaeus moyebi was less than 100 µm in size, whereas Macrobrachium rosenbergii are larger than 1 mm. This study discovered MPs in a variety of colours, including blue, black, deep blue, red, and green. The amount of microplastics found in the three organs of two shrimp species did not differ significantly (p > 0.05). There was no correlation between microplastic and Metapenaeus moyebi length (p > 0.05), but there was in Macrobrachium rosenbergii (p < 0.05; R > 0.5).
