Analyzing microplastics

22 Mar 2021

Contamination in our waterways, soil, air, and drinking water from microplastics is gaining significant public interest due largely to its emergence as an environmental threat. This brochure describes an instrument that can be used to identify and semi-quantify microplastics down to 10 µm in minutes.
