PlastiTrax® Reference Materials
Precise | Exact Particle Counts | User-Friendly |
PlastiTrax® reference materials set new standards for method validation and quality assurance in microplastic analysis. Each tablet contains individually characterized microplastic particles with precisely determined particle numbers, enabling reliable, reproducible, and standardized analytical workflows. By combining multiple polymer types within a single tablet, realistic sample scenarios can be simulated while significantly reducing analytical effort.
The PlastiTrax® portfolio includes reference tablets, Artificial Test Samples, QC tablets with deuterated polymers, and Real Plastix materials derived from real consumer products. Together, these products support method development, recovery testing, QA/QC, and environmentally relevant microplastic analysis across a wide range of applications.
Analytical Services
Detection | Identification | Quantification |
MIQALab provides comprehensive microplastic analytical services for environmental, industrial, and research applications. Every analysis is performed using streamlined workflows, including laboratory blanks, contamination control, and optional QA/QC procedures with deuterated polymer standards to ensure reliable and reproducible results.
Our expertise covers the complete analytical process—from matrix-specific sample preparation and microplastic identification to detailed reporting including particle size distribution, and quality assurance parameters. By continuously validating and optimizing our methods using our own PlastiTrax® reference materials, we deliver high-quality analytical data for a wide range of sample matrices.
