Back on the microfluidic. Detection of #microplastics from water? No problem! Our microfluidic can filter and size-sort them in a single flush. Add nile red and check if they are plastic or something else. Red=plastic, black=not plastic.

Identification of #Zooplankton? Once more, not a problem. Fill a syringe from a pond, flush the liquid on the microfluidics, and boom, zooplankton is size sorted in the device, ready for identification (thanks @ReynaudEmmanuel :))

RT @CMEMS_EU: The analysis of #CopernicusMarine 🇪🇺🌊 data on Sea Surface Temperature & on #Zooplankton traces provide precious information to predict what influence marine megafauna, in their migration pathways 🐋🦈
