The analysis of microplastics in sediments, soils or beach samples is commonly paired with a separation step to enrich microplastics or to remove non-plastics, respectively. Those steps are often very time consuming and are performed in presence of high concentrated solvents. The latter are also suspected to corrode or decompose the analyte particles, which hamper further identification processes. This paper describes a new fast and effective microplastics separation apparatus for analytical iss ...[more]
