Microplastics detection allows for real-time, flow-through microplastics quantification as well as identification.

About

The system differentiates between plastic and non-plastic particles in a liquid sample. The sensor can make rapid detections in minutes without the possibility of contaminating the sample. This technology has the potential to be developed into a real-time and low cost microplastics sensor. This instrument will produce quantitative microplastics particle count, size distribution, and plastic to biological material ratio.

Key Benefits

Compact solution Rapid analysis Flow-through system Potential portability Reduced possibility for cross-contamination

Applications

Microplastics identification and detection in liquids
