FT-IR analysis for monitoring marine microplastics

AI summary Read the abstract

This paper reviews Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy as an analytical tool for identifying and characterizing marine microplastics, which are difficult to monitor due to their small size and the complexity of environmental samples. Robust analytical methods are essential for assessing microplastic contamination and its potential entry into marine food webs.
