Autofluorescence of Model Polyethylene Terephthalate Nanoplastics for Cell Interaction Studies

This work contributes to fill one of the gaps regarding nanoplastic interactions with biological systems by producing polyethylene terephthalate (PET) model nanoplastics, similar to those found in the marine environment, by means of a fast top-down approach based on mechanical fragmentation. Their s...
