Micro- and Nanoplastics in Vegetables:
Detection Using TED-GC/MS
How MNPs enter vegetables
through roots and leaves
Why washing offers only
limited protection
How TED-GC/MS provides a precise analytical solution for your lab

Date: June 25th, 2025
Time: 10 - 10.30 a.m. (CEST)
Micro- and nanoplastics (MNPs) are increasingly entering the food chain through air, water, and soil – posing serious challenges for health and safety.
In this compact 30-minute webinar, Eric Zytowski from the University of Potsdam presents a practical case study on the uptake and detection of MNPs in pak choi.
The focus is on the TED-GC/MS technique, which enables reliable identification and quantification of even the smallest plastic particles in plant material.
You will learn:
- how MNPs enter vegetables through roots and leaves
- why washing offers only limited protection
- and how TED-GC/MS provides a precise analytical solution for your laboratory.
Research meets real-world application – a must for anyone involved in contaminant analysis.
