Summary

This research developed and validated an infrared spectroscopy method optimized for detecting microplastics in salt matrices, addressing the challenge of mineral interference in halite-based samples. The optimized protocol successfully identified polymer types in sea salt, lake salt, and rock salt samples with improved accuracy relative to standard FTIR methods, supporting more reliable contamination assessments in food-grade salt products.
