Identifying the chemical composition of micro- and nanoplastics using techniques such as spectroscopy and chromatography is critical for understanding their environmental fate and toxicological risks. Overcoming current analytical challenges in detecting nanoscale plastic particles remains a key barrier to comprehensive risk assessment.
From automated Raman to cost-effective nanoparticle-on-film (NPoF) SERS spectroscopy: A combined approach for assessing micro- and nanoplastics released into the oral cavity from chewing gum
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers developed a cost-effective method using household metallic foils to detect nanoplastics released from chewing gum into saliva during one hour of chewing. They found over 250,000 microplastic particles and additional nanoplastics released from the gum base into the oral cavity. This study highlights an overlooked route of direct microplastic exposure through a common everyday product that millions of people use.
