Flow Cytometry as a Rapid Alternative to Quantify Small Microplastics in Environmental Water Samples
The most frequently used method to quantify microplastics (MPs) visually by microscope is time consuming and labour intensive, where the method is also hindered by the size limitation at 10 µm or even higher. A method is proposed to perform pre-concentration of MPs by vacuum filtration, hydrogen per...
