Additives from microplastics : characterization, leaching and impacts
Environmental pollution from plastics and microplastics is a threat to the environment and wildlife on multiple aspects regarding exposition of different hazards. One of them is due to the chemical impact of plastic additives. The interest of studying plastic additives is growing since the use of su...

Environmental pollution from plastics and microplastics is a threat to the environment and wildlife on multiple aspects regarding exposition of different hazards. One of them is due to the chemical impact of plastic additives. The interest of studying plastic additives is growing since the use of such molecules has become controversial as many of them are considered as toxic for organisms, human beings, and have been found in the marine ecosystem. The impact and the extent of this pollution is not fully understood because of the lack of methods able to comprehensively analyze the wide diversity of plastic additives. This PhD thesis aimed to gain a better understanding of the chemical impact of organic plastic additives (OPAs) in marine organisms. First, a general method, for identying a selection of OPAs, was successfully developed using pyrolysis/thermal desorption-gas chromatography coupled to a high-resolution mass spectrometer (Py/TD-GC-HRMS).
