Since microplastics (MPs) bring the potential risks to human health when plastics are ingested, more needs to be known about the presence and abundance of human ingestion of MPs. To address these issues, we reviewed 108 publications in Web of Science concerning abundances, sources, and analytical methods of MPs in human daily intake including fish, salt, drinking water, beverages, package food, and other food. The results demonstrate that aquatic food products (fish and bivalves) present a wide range of 0-10.5 items/g for bivalves and 0-20 items/individual for fish. Salt data in literatures present a concentration of 0-13,629 particles/kg. Drinking water is also a pathway of MPs exposure to human, presenting a concentration range from 0 to 61 particles/L for tap water and 0 to 6292 MPs/L for bottled water. Besides, MPs have been found in beverages, package food, sugar, honey, vegetables, and fruits. Therefore, human intake of MPs via ingestion is a nonnegligible exposure route.
由于微塑料（MPs）在被摄入时会对人类健康带来潜在风险，因此需要更多地了解人类摄入 MPs 的存在和丰度。为了解决这些问题，我们回顾了 Web of Science 中关于人类日常摄入中 MPs 的丰度、来源和分析方法的 108 篇文献，包括鱼类、盐、饮用水、饮料、包装食品和其他食品。结果表明，水生食品（鱼类和贝类）的 MPs 含量范围为贝类 0-10.5 个/克，鱼类 0-20 个/个。文献中的盐数据显示浓度为 0-13629 个/千克。饮用水也是人类接触 MPs 的途径之一，自来水中 MPs 的浓度范围为 0-61 个/升，瓶装水中 MPs 的浓度范围为 0-6292 个/升。此外， MPs 还存在于饮料、包装食品、糖、蜂蜜、蔬菜和水果中。因此，通过摄入摄入 MPs 是一个不可忽视的暴露途径。
