Recent studies have indicated the presence of micro- and nanoplastics in food of animal origin. To address the concerns regarding human dietary plastic uptake, extensive monitoring using validated analytical methods is required. However, a major challenge in analysis lies in the high complexity of preparing food samples rich in macromolecular content (e.g., proteins, complex lipids), such as seafood. Consequently, this study a...

Objective Multicomponent interventions are recommendable to achieve the greatest mental health benefits, but are difficult to evaluate due to their complexity. Defining long-term outcomes, arising from a Theory of Change (ToC) and testing them in a pilot phase, is a useful approach to plan a comprehensive and meaningful evaluation later on. This article reports on the pilot results of an outcome evaluation of a complex mental...
