abstract: This study estimated the concentration of microplastics (i.e. plastics measuring less than 5mm; reported in unit of pieces per kg dry weight) in sediments from protected areas of the Gulf of Venice (northern Adriatic Sea) during 2017-11-10 to 2018-04-06. Microplastics were collected using a Van Veen grab. This dataset contains the results from all 19 sediment samples, in a spreadsheet format.
purpose: These microplastic concentration data were collected in order to determine their abundance in sediments from protected areas of the Gulf of Venice (northern Adriatic Sea) during 2017-11-10 to 2018-04-06

description: Parameter or Variable: microplastic concentration (measured); Units: pieces per kg dry weight; Observation Category: in situ; Sampling Instrument: Van Veen grab; Sampling and Analyzing Method: Surface sediment samples (about 2 kg) were collected in duplicate at each sampling site. Sediment samples were sieved through a 0.5-mm stainless steel sieve. Then the plastic debris was visually identified and removed under a dissection microscope (Nikon SMZ45T, magnification 3.35–300 ×), counted, and measured. Plastic debris in sediment was reported as density (items kg−1) per unit of dried sediment. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis of plastic debris was carried out with a CARY 600 FT-IR (Agilent Technologies) instrument. Measurements were carried out in attenuated total reflectance (ATR) configuration, with a Pike Miracle diamond cell. Tests were carried out at 25 °C in dry air. Particles were identified by comparing FT-IR absorbance spectra of the microplastics to those in a polymer reference library. A subsample (about 30%) of the collected plastics was analyzed.; Data Quality Method: All necessary precautions were implemented to minimize microplastic contamination while handling and processing the samples: cotton lab coats and nitrile gloves were worn in the laboratory, and the samples were capped with aluminum foil and glass caps during the identification and analysis to minimize airborne contamination. The fraction of smaller microfibers (< 0.5 mm) is reported as the one that can be overestimated due to environmental contamination (Lusher et al., 2017): in our study we believe that this error may be negligible, as 0.5 mm was the minimum size of the particles we have considered.
