Plastic particles are ubiquitous pollutants in the living environment and food chain but no
study to date has reported on the internal exposure of plastic particles in human blood. This …

Plastics are now omnipresent in our daily lives. The existence of microplastics (1 µm to 5 mm
in length) and possibly even nanoplastics (< 1 μm) has recently raised health concerns. In …

Abstract Nanoplastics (NPs), small (< 1 μm) polymer particles formed from bulk plastics, are
a potential threat to human health and the environment. Orders of magnitude smaller than …

Material-binding peptides (MBPs) have emerged as a diverse and innovation-enabling class
of peptides in applications such as plant-/human health, immobilization of catalysts …

Kinetics-based differences in the early stage fragmentation of two structurally analogous
silica-supported hafnocene-and zirconocene-based catalysts were observed during gas …

Microplastics are a growing environmental and toxicological concern, having been found in
the remotest locations of the earth and within multiple organs of the human body. However …

This study explored the applicability of fluid imaging microscopy (FlowCam) as a valuable
tool for characterizing microplastic transformations, addressing the urgent need for rapid …

Over the last decade remarkable advances have been made in creating spectroscopic tools
to interrogate surface properties using electromagnetic radiation in the near field, achieving …

The pervasive presence of nanoplastics (NPs) in environmental media has raised significant
concerns regarding their implications for environmental safety and human health. However …

Microplastic pollution is a growing public concern as these particles are ubiquitous in
various environments and can fragment into smaller nanoplastics. Another environmental …
