Summary

Researchers developed a real-time fluorescence-based detection method for quantifying microplastics in water, addressing limitations of existing techniques and enabling faster, more sensitive monitoring of microplastic concentrations in environmental samples.

Worldwide great concern has recently arisen about pollution by Microplastics (MPs) as a new major and ubiquitous hazard for human health and ecosystems with undetermined, yet potentially dangerous effects. However, despite a great research effort, the methods for...
