Analysis of microplastics in water by micro-Raman spectroscopy: Release of plastic particles from different packaging into mineral water
TL;DR: It is shown that micro-Raman spectroscopy is particularly useful in detecting microplastics in drinking water where particle sizes are in the low micrometer range, and indicates that the packaging itself may release microparticles.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis of microplastics in drinking water and other clean water samples with micro-Raman and micro-infrared spectroscopy: minimum requirements and best practice guidelines.

Witzig,Nicole Zumbülte,Natalia P. Ivleva +18 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a critical review and consensus paper of 12 European analytical laboratories and institutions, dealing with microplastic particle identification and quantification with spectroscopic methods, gives guidance toward harmonized micro plastic particle analysis in clean waters.

Comment on "exposure to microplastics (<10 μm) associated to plastic bottles mineral water consumption: The first quantitative study by Zuccarello et al. [Water Research 157 (2019) 365–371]"
Barbara E. Oßmann,Darena Schymanski,Natalia P. Ivleva,Dieter Fischer,Franziska Fischer,Gerald Dallmann,Frank Welle +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that the results on the contamination of bottled mineral water with microplastics published by Zuccarello et al. are more than questionable and that the analytical method used for the identification and quantification of microplastic particles is not sound and not validated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Determination of particle abrasion through milling with five different salt grinders - a preliminary study by micro-Raman spectroscopy with efforts towards improved quality control of the analytical methods.
TL;DR: In this paper, particle abrasion from five different salt mills with grinding burrs made it possible to detect microplastic contamination in food packaging and processing of food may be a contamination source of microplastics.
