• Bioaccumulation of microplastics in decedent human brains (2025, unknown): “…suggest a reduction of longer carbon chains in the pyrolysis chromatogram, which is potentially due to advanced oxidative degradation of the MNPs and excess carbonyl formation that may lead to an underestimation of the concentration, as our standards are created with pristine polymers 17,18 .”
