Here is some of the most popular content posted on LCGC International this week.

In this edition of the LCGC Blog, Amber Hupp of the College of the Holy Cross reflects on her childhood and talks about her journey recreating the scents from that long past.

Microplastics and nanoplastics have been identified in the lungs of wild birds using laser direct infrared (LDIR) chemical imaging and pyrolysis gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (Py-GC–MS), in the first multi-species evidence of these plastics in bird lungs.

Iowa State University researchers evaluated imidazolium-based ZILs with sulfonate and triflimide anions to understand the influence of ZILs’ chemical structures on polar analyte separation.

Scientists from Tabriz University and the University of Tabriz explored cellulose acetate-UiO-66-COOH as an affordable coating sorbent for thin film extraction of biogenic amines from cheese and alcohol-free beverages using HPLC-MS/MS.

Using pyrolysis-gas chromatography and mass spectrometry, scientists from Fudan University and the Putuo District Center for Disease Control and Prevention detected and quantified microplastics in newborn stool samples.
