Product Details
✓RECOMMENDED: For targeted testing and identification of microplastics in drinking water.
✓TESTS FOR: Reported results will include detailed analysis of microplastic concentrations broken down by size category and polymer type–for example polyethylene, polypropylene, polyvinyl chloride, and polystyrene particles. Particles between 1 micron (μm) and 5 mm in size are quantified, and polymer types are identified for particles >10 μm.
✓EASY-TO-USE AT-HOME TEST KIT: This SimpleLab water test package provides all required materials to properly collect and submit a sample for certified laboratory testing.
✓NOTE: This testing package is designed for drinking water (tap or bottled water) only and cannot be used to analyze marine or surface water.
✓METHOD: Methods for microplastics analysis are still developing and currently have many limitations. This test combines optical microscopy with polarized light microscopy to get a higher accuracy count of microplastics at small particle sizes (1-10μm), as well as Raman spectroscopy which is accurate at identifying polymer types down to 10μm.
✓FASTEST AVAILABLE REPORT TURNAROUND: Get your report back in 12 business days once the lab receives it for testing.
✓EXPERT SUPPORT: Get professional support from PhD scientists and engineers. Our group of experts will be ready to answer all your questions about how to use your kit, contaminants, or results via direct chat.
