Abstract
The accumulation of plastics in the environment is an urgent and critical problem. Plastics break down into micro- and nanoplastics, which readily infiltrate environmental media and biological tissues. They are found globally in natural environments and in many parts of the human body. However, they can be difficult to detect in real-world samples. This project will focus on a new mechanism for assessing how…
