Based on an academic foundation, MIQALab GmbH is an analytical laboratory specializing in microplastic analysis. Our services include the analysis of microplastics in various sample types as well as the production of highly precise reference materials using our developed and patent-pending process.
Analytic Services
Detection | Idntification | Quantification
We offer tailored microplastic analyses precisely adapted to the requirements of your samples and projects. Using state-of-the-art infrared microscopy, we detect, identify, and quantify particles as small as 10 µm.
Our analyses provide detailed information on polymer type, particle size, and quantity within any matrix. Data evaluation is customized to your specific needs, ensuring reliable and meaningful results.
With our strong academic expertise, we guarantee the highest standards in laboratory practices, including rigorous quality assurance and control measures (QA/QC).
Reference materials
Precision | Exact particle count | user friendly
Our PlastiTrax® reference materials set new standards in method validation and quality assurance for microplastic analysis. Each tablet is individually manufactured and characterized, with the exact particle count for each tablet precisely documented. By combining multiple polymer types within a single tablet, you save valuable analysis time and achieve greater efficiency.
With our "Customize your tablet" option, we address your specific requirements directly. You can freely choose particle count, size, and polymer type to create a tailored solution for your specific applications. The size and number of particles can be precisely adjusted to your needs, making PlastiTrax® a flexible and versatile solution for a wide range of applications. Whether for method validation, quality control, or testing new sample preparation methods, PlastiTrax® tablets deliver accurate and reproducible results.
Our innovative manufacturing process has been patent-pending and ensures the highest level of accuracy and reliability. With PlastiTrax®, you choose cutting-edge technology and customizable reference materials for microplastic analysis.
Challenges
Microplastics represent a growing challenge for the environment and public health, increasingly drawing attention from regulatory bodies. Future legislation will require companies across various industries to take responsibility for the microplastic content in their products.
Our analyses help you prepare for upcoming regulations and demonstrate your commitment to sustainable practices. We provide precise data on microplastics in a wide range of products and assist you in minimizing your ecological footprint through customized strategies for microplastic reduction.
If your research requires high-resolution data but you lack the necessary laboratory facilities and expertise, we are here to support you as a reliable partner. From sample preparation to infrared spectroscopy, we handle the entire analysis process and provide you with transparent, standardized data along with all raw data.
