Fund Project: Supported by the Guangdong Basic and Applied Basic Research Fund (No. DG2231351B), the State Key Laboratory of Environmental Chemistry and Ecotoxicology (No. KF2020-19) and the Tianjin Key Laboratory of Medical Mass Spectrometry for Accurate Diagnosis.

A new method for analysis of metal-doped polystyrene microplastics in biological samples by single particle-inductively coupled plasma time-of-flight mass spectrometry (SP-ICP-TOF-MS) was developed. Mouse liver samples spiked with the particles were successfully digested using tetramethylammonium hydroxide and hydrogen peroxide. Centrifugal concentration method was used to remove the matrix from the digested solution and to meet the analytical requirements of SP-ICP-TOF-MS. The method achieved recoveries of 102%±11% for microplastic particles. The SP-ICP-TOF-MS achieved detection limits of 0.004-0.026 fg for Ce, Eu, Ho, and Lu in microplastics, and 37 particles/mL for particle number concentration. The developed method provided a new approach to study the environmental impact and toxicology of microplastics.
