摘要：

Microplastic pollution has received substantial international attention in terrestrial and marine environments and in the atmosphere. In this study, we assessed microplastic pollution and analyzed the accumulation of microplastics in the gills of fish caught in the Zhoushan fishing ground from September 2017 to March 2018. The average abundance of microplastics was 0.49 +/- 0.54 particles/gill and frequently found chemical polymers was polyethylene terephthalate. We also conducted experiments on microplastic pollution in the water and the working solutions used during the analytical process and found that the source of microplastic contamination was the solutions used. Moreover, we evaluated and scored experimental quality control and quality assurance adapted from the 'Total Accumulated Score' method. Valuable steps are recommended in order to produce reliable results and improve the quality of results in microplastic analyses.
