EXPERTISE OF PYRAMID TEA BAGS BY OPTICAL MICROSCOPY AND FTIR-SPECTROSCOPY METHODS. MICROPLASTICS FORMATION IN BREWED TEA

Eight brands of pyramid tea bags on the Ukrainian market were studied: Sun Gardens (1), Lovare (2), Curtis for Mc Donalds (3), Curtis (4), Lipton (5), Premiya (6), Sonnet (7) and Loyd (8).
