Practical new tool detects nanoplastics and microplastics in the environment

A team of McGill University researchers has developed a cost-effective, high-throughput technology for detecting nanoplastics and microplastics in the environment.

The article from phys.org, published on May 15, 2025, discusses a new tool developed by researchers to detect and quantify nanoplastics and microplastics in environmental samples. This innovative method uses advanced spectroscopy and machine learning algorithms to identify plastic particles as small as 20 nanometers, significantly improving upon existing techniques that could only detect particles down to 1 micrometer. The tool has been successfully tested in various environmental matrices, including water, soil, and air, demonstrating its versatility and potential to enhance our understanding of plastic pollution's impact on ecosystems. The development of this technology is seen as a crucial step forward in environmental science, enabling more accurate monitoring and management of plastic contamination worldwide.
