Agricultural plastics as marine pollutants: Empirical evidence from inland and coastal field surveys

open access: yesiScience
Summary: Despite ongoing negotiations to establish a Global Plastics Treaty aimed at ending plastic pollution, agriculture remains an often-overlooked source of marine litter. While most global assessments emphasize take-out consumer activity and fishing

Polystyrene Nanoplastic‐Mercury Complexes Detection by Electrolyte‐Gated Carbon Nanotube Field‐Effect Transistor‐Based Sensors

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
An electrolyte‐gated field effect transistor sensor is used to detect an environmentally relevant nanoplastic model. The sensor identifies the presence of polystyrene nanoplastics in water dispersions without significantly altering its performance in the presence of mercury on the nanoplastics’ surface, indicating that it may be utilized in ...

Leveraging Design of Experiments to Unravel the Amplification Mechanism of Single‐Molecule Wide‐Field Biosensors

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Detecting single molecules on large interfaces is challenging due to minimal perturbations on the sensing surface. Some biological systems achieve this feat using amplification mechanisms, but their molecular foundations remain unclear. To investigate, a Design of Experiments (DoE) approach examines how pH and ionic strength in conditioning solutions ...
