Summary
Researchers developed an automated approach using focal plane array FT-IR spectroscopy for microplastic analysis, enabling faster and more comprehensive identification of particles in environmental samples with less manual effort.
We present an automated approach to reduce the time demand currently needed for data analyses. We have developed a novel analysis pipeline, followed by image analysis with Python and Simple ITK image processing modules.
