A Novel LIBS-MachineLearning Strategy for MultimetalDetection in Microsized PMMA Particles: Efficient Quantification forComposite Pollution

AI summary Read the abstract

Researchers developed a novel approach combining laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) with machine learning to simultaneously detect and quantify three heavy metals (chromium, lead, and copper) in 2-micrometer PMMA microplastic particles, finding that partial least-squares calibration models with spectral preprocessing achieved R-squared values above 0.90 for all three metals. The study demonstrates that microplastics can serve as vectors for composite metal contamination, and that optimized LIBS-ML pipelines substantially outperform univariate calibration methods for this detection task.

A Novel Approach for Fast Microplastic Quantification in Sediments Using Machine Learning—Spectrometer Combinations

AI summary Read the abstract

Researchers combined visible near-infrared and FTIR spectroscopy with machine learning models (SVR, PLSR, BPNN) to rapidly estimate concentrations of PE, PP, PS, and PVC microplastics in river and loess sediments without extraction or manual counting. Faster, non-destructive quantification methods are crucial for scaling up microplastic monitoring across diverse environmental matrices and enabling consistent cross-study comparisons of pollution levels.
