Summary

Researchers developed a novel extraction method for microplastics from aquatic sediments that does not rely on density separation, making it compatible with FTIR spectroscopy without requiring additional processing steps. The approach could simplify and speed up microplastic analysis in environmental samples.

We present here a novel, density-independent, FTIR-compatible and inexpensive approach for extracting microplastics from aquatic sediments.
