A wide range of contaminants of emerging concern such as micro/nanoplastics (MPs/PNPs)
and metal-nanoparticles (Me-NPs) from anthropogenic activities have been identified in …

Single-particle analysis has attracted considerable attention in recent years because of the
size/composition-dependent properties and heterogeneity of nanoparticles (NPs). Single …

Single particle inductively coupled plasma time-of-flight mass spectrometry (sp-ICP-TOFMS),
in combination with online microdroplet calibration, allows for the determination of particle …

Although natural atmospheric nanomaterials are ubiquitous and highly influential in
environmental systems, they have only recently begun to be studied. We analyzed sub …

Nanotechnology has emerged as a rapidly growing scientific field with diverse applications.
Titanium dioxide nanoparticles are among the most commonly used nanoparticles due to …

Road dust particles including nanoparticles (NPs), with heterogeneous composition, are
significant carriers of metals/metalloids and can be further transported into the atmosphere …

Urban rain and runoff are potential sources of anthropogenic nanomaterials (engineered
and incidental, ENMs and INMs) to receiving waterbodies. However, there is currently a …

Inorganic nanomaterials such as TiO2 and ZnO provide significant benefits in terms of UV
protection, and their use generally has increased in commercial sunscreens. However, more …

Niobium (Nb) is considered as one of the most immobile elements during supergene
weathering due to its low solubility and the expected resistance of the pyrochlore mineral …

This study describes an interlaboratory comparison (ILC) among nine (9) laboratories to
evaluate and validate the standard operation procedure (SOP) for single-particle (sp) ICP …
