Summary
This bachelor's thesis reviewed analytical methods for detecting and characterizing microplastics in environmental samples, comparing optical microscopy, spectroscopy, and thermal analysis approaches. The review identified spectroscopic confirmation as essential for polymer identification and flagged sample contamination as a major challenge across all methods.
