Microplastic (MP) and nanoplastic (NP) pollution is among the global environmental concerns of the 21st century owing to its transboundary distribution and persistence. The number of studies focused on the determination of MPs in air, water, sediment, soil, and biota of an important number of ecosystems has increased exponentially. However, the impact that the methodologies used to isolate and determine MPs and NPs have on the environment owing to the consumption of reagents and energy and the generation of waste is not yet studied. This review presents a critical overview of the analytical methodologies applied to determination of MPs and NPs assessing their greenness using the National Environmental Methods Index, Analytical Eco-Scale, and AGREE metrics and discussing green issues related to the consumption of solvents/reagents and so on.

由于其跨界分布和持久性，微塑料（MP）和纳米塑料（NP）污染已成为21世纪全球环境关注的问题之一。致力于确定重要生态系统中的空气，水，沉积物，土壤和生物群中MP的研究数量呈指数增长。但是，由于试剂和能量的消耗以及废物的产生，用于分离和测定MP和NP的方法对环境的影响尚未得到研究。这篇综述对用于确定MP和NP的分析方法进行了严格的概述，该分析方法是使用国家环境方法指数，分析生态规模和AGREE指标评估其绿色程度，并讨论了与溶剂/试剂消耗等有关的绿色问题。 。
