How may microplastics be transferred from a glass fiber (GF) filter to an aluminum oxide filter?

27 June 2022 0 2K Report

To examine MPs, we intend to combine the Nile staining approach with micro-FTIR imaging. According to the literature, aluminum oxide filters are required for FTIR imaging, while GF filters are effective for NR-staining.

What is the best technique to move MPs from one filter to another if we use GF, filter for NR-staining?
