LDIR imaging analysis of the physical properties of MPs in IS thrombi. (a) Type and abundance of MP polymers detected by LDIR (n = 3). (b) Polymer distribution of the detected MPs. (c) Size distribution of the detected MPs (d–l) Diameter, perimeter, area, width, height, aspect ratio, eccentricity, circularity and solidity of PE, ACR, PP, CPE, PMMA, and PU. Abbreviations: PE, polyethylene; ACR, acrylate polymer; PP, polypropylene; CPE, chlorinated polyethylene; PMMA, polymethyl methacrylate; PU, polyurethane.
