“…Contrarily, another study applying Raman micro spectroscopy (≥10 µm) found no evidence for MP in tap water, but only for pigment particles [11]. This highlights once again the need to identify risk factors for MP entry in drinking water.…”

“…This can, e.g., be done with syringe membrane filters (with 0.2 μm pore size, e.g., made of cellulose acetate [32]). Instead of syringe membrane filters, the chemicals can be filtered through a polycarbonate (PC) filter (with a pore size of 1.2 μm) as proposed by Weber et al [52]. Alternatively, 1.2 μm and 0.7 μm glass-fiber filters can be applied for the filtration of the reagents before use, as reported by Johnson et al and Kirstein et al [53,54], respectively.…”
