detection_method_notes KOH digestion may hydrolyse PET, potentially eliminating it from alkaline-digested samples. µRaman or FTIR on non-digested samples is preferred. PET markers are reliable when detected.
source_id 4
notes Common polyester fibre from clothing; dominant particle type in indoor dust.
