Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.Orally administered polystyrene microplastics accumulate in murine tissues and are detected using MALDI‐MSI with TIMS. Lipid profiling reveals decreases in hexosylceramides, sphingomyelins, and ether‐linked phospholipids, indicating altered metabolism.

Microplastic-mediated transport of PCBs? A depuration study with Daphnia magna.
PLoS ONE, 2019 The role of microplastic (MP) as a carrier of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) to aquatic organisms has been a topic of debate. However, the reverse POP transport can occur if relative contaminant concentrations are higher in the organism than in the

Advanced Science, EarlyView.A green, thermoreversible self‐assembly strategy yields a multifunctional and recyclable supramolecular nanofibrous membrane. Graphene oxide (GO) nanosheet acts as a heterogeneous nucleation‐templating agent, simultaneously modulating the supramolecular crystal packing while tailoring the nanofibrous architecture for elite performance.

Tracking of [14C]Polystyrene Nanoplastics in Pregnant Mice
Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study investigates [14C]polystyrene nanoplastic ([14C]PS) translocation in late‐stage pregnant mice after intranasal (0.5 mg of [14C]PS on GD12, GD14, and GD16, n = 6) and intravenous administration (1.5 mg of [14C]PS on GD16, n = 6). 14C‐radiolabel allows quantitative tracking of unmodified polystyrene nanoplastics.

Do microplastic particles affect Daphnia magna at the morphological, life history and molecular level? [PDF]
, 2017 Microplastic particles are ubiquitous not only in marine but also in freshwater ecosystems. However, the impacts of microplastics, consisting of a large variety of synthetic polymers, on freshwater organisms remains poorly understood.
