Outdoor Microplastic Analysis Using Inlet Filters from an NOx Regulatory Air Quality Monitoring Device (2022)
Journal Article
Jenner, L. C., Kureshi, R. R., White, D., Chapman, E., Sadofsky, L. R., & Rotchell, J. M. (2022). Outdoor Microplastic Analysis Using Inlet Filters from an NOx Regulatory Air Quality Monitoring Device. Atmosphere, 13(12), Article 2017. https://doi.org/10.3390/atmos13122017

Atmospheric microplastics (MPs) are a ubiquitous environmental contaminant of emerging concern. Sampling methods provide information relating to surface area concentration and MP characteristics, without direct comparison with routinely measured stan...

Microplastics in the surgical environment (2022)
Journal Article
Field, D. T., Green, J. L., Bennett, R., Jenner, L. C., Sadofsky, L., Chapman, E., Loubani, M., & Rotchell, J. M. (2022). Microplastics in the surgical environment. Environment International, 170, Article 107630. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.envint.2022.107630

Atmospheric microplastics (MPs) have been consistently detected within indoor and outdoor air samples. Locations with high human activity are reported to have high MP levels. The aim was to quantify and characterise the MPs present within the surgica... Read More about Microplastics in the surgical environment.

Outdoor atmospheric microplastics within the Humber region (United Kingdom): Quantification and chemical characterisation of deposited particles present (2022)
Journal Article
Jenner, L., Sadofsky, L., Danopoulos, E., Chapman, E., White, D., Jenkins, R., & Rotchell, J. M. (2022). Outdoor atmospheric microplastics within the Humber region (United Kingdom): Quantification and chemical characterisation of deposited particles present. Atmosphere, 13(2), Article 265. https://doi.org/10.3390/atmos13020265

Atmospheric microplastics (MPs) have been consistently captured within air samples on a global scale. Locations with high human activity are reported to have high MP levels. An urban sampling site in the Humber region (U.K.) has been sampled over a 1...
