Micro- and Nanoplastics in Vegetables: Detection Using TED-GC/MS
GERSTEL: Micro- and Nanoplastics in Vegetables: Detection Using TED-GC/MS
Micro- and nanoplastics (MNPs) are increasingly entering the food chain through air, water, and soil – posing serious challenges for health and safety.
In this compact 30-minute webinar, Eric Zytowski from the University of Potsdam presents a practical case study on the uptake and detection of MNPs in pak choi.
The focus is on the TED-GC/MS technique, which enables reliable identification and quantification of even the smallest plastic particles in plant material.
You will learn:
- how MNPs enter vegetables through roots and leaves
- why washing offers only limited protection
- and how TED-GC/MS provides a precise analytical solution for your laboratory.
Research meets real-world application – a must for anyone involved in contaminant analysis.
Note: This webinar will be held in English only!
On Demand Webinar will be here soon!
