Microplastics are ubiquitous in the aquatic environment. This study was conducted to determine the microplastic accumulation in Cerithidea obtusa obtained from Larkin Central Market in Johor, Malaysia. The mean concentration of microplastics was 0.444 ± 0.111 - 0.852 ± 0.513 particles/individual. Th...
