Summary
Researchers developed and refined pyrolysis-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (a technique that heats plastics to identify their chemical fingerprints) to more accurately measure micro- and nanoplastics directly in human blood. Improving this method is critical because reliable detection in biological samples is a key step toward understanding how much plastic exposure humans are actually experiencing.
