- New publication in ACS Nano! We are very pleased to share our latest work: “Hydrogel Transformation Reveals a Conventionally Inaccessible Sub-Micrometer Microplastic Fraction in Intact Human Tissues” 🔬 Detecting micro- and nanoplastics in human tissues remains challenging, particularly for the smallest particles. In this study, we introduce a hydrogel-based tissue transformation and optical imaging workflow that enables in situ, volumetric detection of micro- and nanoplastics down to approximately 400 nm, while
