A New Method for Microplastics Identification in Copepods

A New Method for Microplastics Identification in Copepods

This study investigates several methods to identify microplastics (MPs) of small size ranges (<10 µm) in the copepod Eurytemora affinis collected in the Seine estuary (France) and identified using epifluorescence microscopy and Raman microspectroscopy. In order to calibrate the methodology, c...
