Water quality — Analysis of microplastic in water — Part 2: Vibrational spectroscopy methods for waters with low content of suspended solids including drinking water

Summary

This international standard specifies vibrational spectroscopy methods—including FTIR and Raman techniques—for the analysis of microplastics in water samples with low suspended solids content, including drinking water. The standard provides technical guidance on sample preparation, measurement procedures, and identification of microplastic particles to support consistent, comparable monitoring of microplastic contamination in water supplies.
