Microplastic detection is a relatively new, rapidly developing field focused on the development and application of technologies and methodologies for identifying and quantifying microplastic particles in ecosystems, industries, and consumer products. Detection of microplastics is extremely challenging due to the complexity of the task and the necessitates the use of advanced analytical techniques: spectroscopy, chromatography, microscopy, and emerging technologies such as sensor-based automated systems and machine learning algorithms. These tools are capable of identifying and quantifying the presence of microplastics in a wide variety of matrices, running from marine and fresh environments, soil, air, and human tissues. This is accompanied by a demand from environmental agency, research institutions, water treatment facilities, and manufacturing industries that can help manage microplastic pollution and comply with regulatory standards.
