Summary

This review covers recent mass spectrometry-based analytical methods for determining the size, chemical identity, and quantity of microplastics and nanoplastics in indoor air and dust. It highlights how advances in single-particle mass spectrometry are enabling more sensitive detection of nano-sized plastic fragments in indoor environments.

In this review we discuss the novel developments in mass spectrometry-based analytical methods for size determination, chemical identification, and quantification of the microplastic and nanoplastic in indoor air and dust.
