Targeted and non-targeted analysis of microplastics exposure using pyrolysis gas chromatography ion mobility mass spectrometry
Abstract
Plastics are synthetic materials composed of organic polymers and additives such as plasticizers, flame retardants, and antioxidants, some of which can adversely affect human health. Over time, larger plastics and fibers fragment through weathering, mechanical degradation, and sunlight into smaller particles known as microplastics (
