Abstract Based on the existing researches and literatures, this paper comprehensively discusses the interaction between microplastics and microorganisms in the aquatic environment in recent years. It is found that microplastics can not only be used as mobile carriers of microorganisms, but also affect the structure and function of microbial communities, and microorganisms play an important role in the degradation of microplastics. In addition, this paper further explores the degradation mechanism of microplastics by microorganisms, and puts forward suggestions for future research and focus in this field, which provides theoretical references for further research on microplastic removal.
