Do Microplastics Enter Our Food Chain Via Root Vegetables? A Raman Based Spectroscopic Study on <i>Raphanus sativus</i>

Do Microplastics Enter Our Food Chain Via Root Vegetables? A Raman Based Spectroscopic Study on <i>Raphanus sativus</i>

The outburst of plastic pollution in terrestrial ecosystems poses a potential threat to agriculture and food safety. Studies have already provided evidence for the uptake of plastic microparticles by several plant species, accompanied by numerous developmental effects, using fluorescence labelling t...
