Analysis of microplastics in water by micro-Raman spectroscopy: Release of plastic particles from different packaging into mineral water

Microplastics are anthropogenic contaminants which have been found in oceans, lakes and rivers. Investigations focusing on drinking water are rare and studies have mainly been using micro-Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (μ-FT-IR). A major limitation of this technique is its inability to dete...
