Automated identification and quantification of microfibres and microplastics
Summary
Researchers developed an automated method using FTIR imaging data analysis to simultaneously identify and quantify both microplastics and microfibers in environmental samples. Automation improves throughput and consistency compared to manual identification, addressing a key bottleneck in large-scale microplastic monitoring.
Microplastics (MP) and microfibers (MF), were simultaneously identified and quantified by data analysis of FTIR imaging measurements.
