Analyse Microplastics in Minutes, Not Hours

Want to bring exceptional speed and throughput to your microplastics research?

Microplastics in the environment are becoming a greater concern as scientists begin to understand their penetration into our ecosystems and food chains. Typically, techniques such as vibrational spectroscopy have been used to chemically identify microplastics. However, this approach is often complex and slow.

What you will learn

The Agilent Laser Direct Infrared (LDIR) chemical imaging system introduces an automated approach to imaging and spectral analysis. Its Quantum Cascade Laser (QCL) technology—coupled with rapidly scanning optics—provides fast, high-quality images and spectral data. Using the 8700 LDIR, experts and non-experts alike can:

• Analyse samples in minutes, not hours.
• Determine the chemical identity, size, and shape of microplastics in their samples.
• Obtain useful statistical data to advance their microplastics research.
• Take rapid, detailed images of large sample areas with intuitive Agilent Clarity software.
