Experimental data supporting the radiolabelling of polystyrene microplastics with technetium-99m
Summary
Researchers developed a radiotracer compound by labeling polystyrene microplastics with technetium-99m, a medical imaging isotope, to enable tracking of microplastic particles in biological and environmental systems. The dataset covers labeling yield, particle size, charge, and stability in various media. Radiolabeled microplastics could become a powerful tool for studying how plastic particles move through organisms and ecosystems with high precision.
This workbook is intended to provide transparent data associated with yield and in-vitro stability work with the Ps-NH2-Tc99m microplastic-radiotracer compound. The data included quality control yield measurements, DLS hydrodynamic size and zeta potential measurements, and time-dependent stability in various environmentally and biologically relevant media. This work was conducted at Ege University, Institute of Nuclear Sciences.
