Introduction

Dive deep into the fascinating world of marine microplastics with one of our valued customers, Katsia Pabortsava, Scientist at the National Oceanography Centre, UK. Her research explores how microplastics are distributed in the ocean and their interactions with marine ecosystems.

In this ‘Teach Me in 10’ interview feature, learn more about the interaction of microplastics with particulate organic matter, and how aggregation with marine snow and incorporation into zooplankton fecal material contribute to their sinking. Katsia breaks down the science behind these processes, offering a glimpse into cutting-edge detection methods and technologies, including the PerkinElmer Spotlight 400.
