The presence of micro/plastic particles has been reported in various seafood products. However, information on microplastics contamination in salts from African continent is very limited. This study analysed 23 brands of table salts from 8 African countries for microplastics using microscopic/spectroscopic techniques. South Africa showed the highest microplastics concentration (0-1.33 ± 0.32 particles/kg), Nigeria, Cameroun, and Ghana (0-0.33 ± 0.38 particles/kg each); characterized as polyvinyl acetate, polypropylene, and polyethyle
