| Popis | Important clarifications regarding the long-range environmental transport of chemical additives contained in floating plastic debris are presented. The Perspective article by Gouin [1] summarizes various aspects of the environmental long-range transport of plastic particles and non-polymeric chemicals, and also discusses the present knowledge about, and uncertainties associated with, the transport of microplastics (MPs) and additives contained in MPs. However, the article contains many misinterpretations and inaccuracies that lead to incorrect conclusions. |
