DOI: 10.1021/acs.analchem.2c02543
Abstract: Nano-/microplastics (NMPs, particle diameter < 5 mm) are widespread emerging pollutants causing diverse impacts on organisms due to their sizes, shapes, and chemical properties. Despite the fast increase in NMP research, an effective method to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1289/ehp9086
Abstract: Background: Pregnancy, infancy, and childhood are sensitive windows for environmental exposures. Yet the health effects of exposure to nano- and microplastics (NMPs) remain largely uninvestigated or unknown. Although plastic chemicals are a well-established research topic,… read more here.
