Microplastic in fish

01 January 1970 1 4K Report

AA. I have an inquiry to you. I have filtered water, sediment and fish different parts.... Now microplastic are on filter paper.

Shall I send you filter paper as such for analysis of chemical composition through FTIR etc,,

Fahir Hassan

Yes, if you are going to do micro FTIR analysis, you can send it to a lab that can analyze it in the form of your filter paper. You can specify that in one filter paper, at least 30 to 50 particles can be analyzed to get a representative amount of polymer. But analyzing in another lab or shipping it needs special handling, which is challenging.
