acidic media in order to perform a complete digestion of nonwoven textiles, which can be found in face&lt;br&gt;
masks. In particular, this protocol allows the digestion of PET-, PTFE-, polyamide- and elastane-containing&lt;br&gt;
textiles resulting in a complete release of metallic contents in order to analyze their elemental&lt;br&gt;
contents by ICP techniques.&lt;/p&gt;
