Code 1-3: reproducible diagnostic-band identification of field microplastics and naming divergence across six spectral-library streams

Summary

Scientists tested methods for identifying tiny plastic particles in the environment using light-based scanning tools, and found that different databases often name the same plastic differently. This matters because inconsistent labeling makes it harder to accurately track how much and what type of microplastic pollution people may be exposed to through water, food, and air.
