Microplastics in human blood: Polymer types, concentrations and characterisation using μFTIR (2024)
Journal Article
Leonard, S. V. L., Liddle, C. R., Atherall, C. A., Chapman, E., Watkins, M., Calaminus, S. D. J., & Rotchell, J. M. (2024). Microplastics in human blood: Polymer types, concentrations and characterisation using μFTIR. Environment International, 188, Article 108751. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.envint.2024.108751

Microplastics (MPs) are an everyday part of life, and are now ubiquitous in the environment. Crucially, MPs have not just been found within the environment, but also within human bodies, including the blood. We aimed to provide novel information on t...

Quantum Dot Imaging Agents: Haematopoietic Cell Interactions and Biocompatibility (2024)
Journal Article
Naylor-Adamson, L., Price, T. W., Booth, Z., Stasiuk, G. J., & Calaminus, S. D. (2024). Quantum Dot Imaging Agents: Haematopoietic Cell Interactions and Biocompatibility. Cells, 13(4), Article 354. https://doi.org/10.3390/cells13040354

Quantum dots (QDs) are semi-conducting nanoparticles that have been developed for a range of biological and non-biological functions. They can be tuned to multiple different emission wavelengths and can have significant benefits over other fluorescen...
