Does anyone have a protocol for MPs assessment in fresh snow?

16 May 2024 1 2K Report

Dear colleagues

Could someone send to me an already validated protocol for microplastic analysis in fresh snow that includes sampling and analysis in the lab?

I suppose there is no need to digest it, but I would greatly appreciate it if someone has a validated protocol to send me.

greetings

Dr. JM Rios

Martin Schneebeli

The paper by Bergmann et al has quite a detailed description of the protocol for sampling and processing: ,Melanie Bergmann et al.
