ALVTechnologies Philippines Incorporated, together with our manufacturer Horiba Scientific, would like to invite you to join our webinar on the topic of “Beyond Micro- and Nanoplastics with A-TEEM Spectroscopy: Measuring Toxic Leachates and Degradation Products in Water“ on May 15, 2025 at 1:30 AM (Philippine time).
Micro- and nanoplastics are not only physically polluting our oceans and rivers, but they also release harmful chemicals that can seriously impact both aquatic life and human health. These toxic substances, including phthalates, Bisphenol A, 6PPD, and flame retardants, can act as endocrine disruptors and carcinogens, making them a major concern for environmental protection agencies.
This webinar highlights recent studies documenting the measurement of these compounds with A-TEEM™ spectroscopy with high-sensitivity (in the ppb range) and selectivity, allowing for detection under experimental conditions even at low concentrations. We will also discuss how plastics break down in the environment, the potential health risks they pose, and the latest trends in analysis and remediation.
- Why are MPs and NPs a growing concern in aquatic environments and the food and water chain?
- What happens to these materials under environmental exposure?
- What specific compounds are leached from plastics and polymers?
- What are the regulated safety guidelines for concentration exposure?
- How can we measure them with high sensitivity under experimental conditions?
