Detection of microplastics in human lung tissue using μFTIR spectroscopy

Lauren C. Jenner et al.

Summary: Airborne microplastics (MPs) have been found to have increased concentrations in areas with high human population and activity, especially indoors. This study analyzed human lung tissue samples and identified 39 MPs in 11 out of 13 samples, with an average concentration of 1.42 +/- 1.50 MP/g of tissue. The most abundant polymer types were polypropylene, polyethylene terephthalate, and resin. The study also found that MPs were present in all regions of the lung, with significantly higher levels in the lower region compared to the upper and middle regions. These findings suggest that inhalation is a route of exposure for environmental MPs.

Coverage of microplastic data underreporting and progress toward standardization

Fermin Perez-Guevara et al.

Summary: The analysis of microplastics in different environments is increasing worldwide, but their data are often underreported due to various reasons. Smaller-sized microplastic particles, which are known to be more harmful, are often not included in the reported data. Improving methodologies and promoting standardization are crucial for enhancing microplastic data.

Critical review on microplastics in fecal matter: Research progress, analytical methods and future outlook

Fermin Perez-Guevara et al.

Summary: This review critically summarizes and compares methodologies for determining microplastics in feces and outlines global levels and characteristics of microplastics detected in feces. Despite methodological variations, most studies rely on digestion processes involving H2O2 and KOH, and combining microscopical sorting and spectroscopic methods for identification and characterization of microplastics. The review also identifies analytical challenges and suggests appropriate methods for researching microplastic contamination in feces.

How well-protected are protected areas from anthropogenic microplastic contamination? Review of analytical methods, current trends, and prospects

Gurusamy Kutralam-Muniasamy et al.

Summary: Microplastics have gained global attention for their negative impacts on organism health and the environment. Recent studies in protected areas have shown that microplastic contamination is widespread, with varying levels of abundance geographically and over 50% of biota ingesting microplastics. Methodological discrepancies pose challenges in comparing results and generating baseline data on microplastic contamination levels. Close monitoring and a standardized approach are necessary to assess the extent of microplastic entry and persistence in protected area environments.

Comparison of Deposition Sampling Methods to Collect Airborne Microplastics in Christchurch, New Zealand

Ella Knobloch et al.

Summary: The study tested four different deposition samplers for collecting airborne microplastics in New Zealand and found that the use of a funnel sampler or open beaker was effective. Fibres were the dominant morphotype of microplastics collected, but only 10% were confirmed as plastic through mu FTIR spectroscopy. This study adds to the growing evidence of the widespread presence of microplastics in the atmosphere.
