Microplastics (MPs) and nanoplastics (NPs) are ubiquitous and intractable in urban waters.Compared with MPs, the smaller NPs have shown distinct physicochemical features, such as Brownian motion, higher specific surface area, and stronger interaction with other pollutants.Therefore, the qualitative and quantitative analysis of NPs is more challengi
