Based on an academic foundation, Microplastic Solution is an analytical laboratory specialized in microplastics. Our services include detection analysis, recovery, mitigation strategies and certification, as well as the production of environmentally relevant reference materials. We are dedicated to providing comprehensive solutions tailored to your needs.
1. Experience
Our comprehension of microplastic analyses is rooted in our academic background and presence. Drawing from our combined experience, we understand what it takes to produce meaningful microplastic data. The legitimacy of MPS is backed up by numerous peer-reviewed publications in high-impact scientific journals, and will continue to do so. Producing good microplastic data requires more than just the correct instrumentation; it requires experience.
2. Quality
We care about the analyses we perform and the resulting data we deliver. That is why we conduct state-of-the-art microspectroscopy coupled with our in-house post-processing software, to further reduce operator bias. Post-processing also includes negative- and positive quality controls, manifested by procedural blank analysis and retraction, as well as recovery experiments for the relevant morphology and size range using our proprietary microplastic reference materials.
3. Innovation
We're not afraid to innovate and our team has on multiple occasions proven this by supplying the scientific community with novel protocols and attempted to challenge the way we understand microplastics. In a field that is evolving every day, we believe that an open mind is an absolute necessity. This is why we continue to seek out new and better ways to manipulate and analyze samples, in addition to improving our own data-treatment processes.
4. Competitivity
We are confident in our abilities. In fact, we believe that our microplastic analyses present the best commercial choice available. In addition to the considerable quality of the data we deliver, our prices are always competitive and we boast ourselves with short turn-around times of 4-6 weeks (depending on the complexity of the sample in question). Moreover, in the unlikely event that we are unable to treat and analyze your sample, we guarantee a full refund (excluding shipping fees).
