Great news, our recent review @Win_OpenData, @MichaelaMeyns @HanDefrond @karawiggin on analytical tools for microplastics #microplastics in Applied Spectroscopy is now available free to view: https://t.co/uMpBDqdL1b

[JPI Oceans @jpioceans]

Take a look at the new #website for the @jpioceans #FACTS project 🌊 on the sources, transport, occurrence, and fate of small #microplastics in northern #European #marine waters 👉 https://t.co/7s1W6IFLiu

In a hurry? This #video explains it in 1 min! 👉 https://t.co/sKaHbRuijf

@MelanieBergma18 @MicroPlastic101 @DusanMateric @DrSCoffin @MarineSteph @primpke @iseult5 @martiwag @stefankrauseh2o @ChelseaRochman @LauraRevellNZ @wastefreephd The definition for engineered nanomaterials is one dimension <100 nm. <1 micron is a practical one for environmental analysis as it coincides with standard filtration pores and the definition of marine colloids. Don't think it's helpful atm to have more categories.

[Michaela M @MichaelaMeyns]

@primpke @DrSCoffin @MicroPlastic101 @GCovernton @Win_OpenData EDX gives elemental ratios, if calibrated well. So you can detect carbon rich microparticles but without back-up by another method I wouldn't conclude that they are MP. No nano found despite title.

Hi Twitterverse - just a heads up on the 'microplastics in human organs' story that is circulating: #microplastics were spiked into tissues to validate a method, they were NOT observed in un-manipulated tissue, as corrected by @guardian @dpcarrington 🙏https://t.co/jBGvsEn71n

[Stephanie Wright @MarineSteph]

If you use Raman for polymer analysis/microplastic ID, there will be an open access plastic spectral database (virgin, consumer, environmental) going live soon for others to use and add to. The more confirmed environmental polymers added, the better (7/8): https://t.co/CqQCKyFIrK

📢🥁🎉IT'S OUR BIRTHDAY!!! 🥳🎂

The very first Pint of Science event took place 14 May 2013 in the UK in 3 cities: the beginning of an incredible adventure.

Many recent studies show that Alzheimer’s disease occurs more often in people exposed to fine particles in polluted air. https://t.co/UQvOERnEMw
