Airborne fibers: passive sampling and environmental contamination

Background: Microplastics are synthetic particles or fibers <5mm [1] released from plastic objects into the environment, contaminating indoor and outdoor air and leading to human exposure with unknown consequences [2]. Only a small number of studies with a high geographical distribution have determined the concentration of airborne microplastics, especially of fibers. Objective: This work aimed at conducting...
