Summary

Researchers investigated individual seawater microplastic particles using optical and Raman tweezers, applying laser-based trapping techniques to enable contactless manipulation and chemical characterization of single microplastic particles collected directly from the marine environment.

Study Type Environmental

Every year, 11 million tons of plastics enter our ocean and estimates suggest that 92 Also see: https://micro2024.sciencesconf.org/552068/document
