Summary
This study tested X-ray computed tomography (CT scanning) as a way to detect microplastics in biological tissue, exploring whether this non-destructive imaging approach could improve on current methods that require chemically processing samples. A non-destructive technique would allow scientists to study microplastic distribution in tissues without destroying the sample, potentially enabling more detailed and repeatable analyses.
