      Pakhomova, Svetlana; Berezina, Anfisa; Lusher, Amy; Zhdanov, Igor; Silvestrova, Ksenia; Zavialov, Peter; van Bavel, Bert; Yakushev, Evgeniy (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)
      Comparative investigations of microplastic (MP) occurrence in the global ocean are often hampered by the application of different methods. In this study, the same sampling and analytical approach was applied during five ...

(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)
      Microscopy is often the first step in microplastic analysis and is generally followed by spectroscopy to confirm material type. The value of microscopy lies in its ability to provide count, size, color, and morphological ...
