Low-cost portable microplastic detection system integrating nile red fluorescence staining with YOLOv8-based deep learning
A a low-cost portable microplastic detection system combining Nile Red staining and YOLOv8 deep learning. Unfortunately, authors have not released code or schematics, limiting reproducibility.
SRS Spectral Matching — Nanoplastic Detection
MATLAB algorithm for rapid single-particle chemical imaging of nanoplastics using stimulated Raman scattering microscopy and automated plastic identificati
Automated Quantitative Photography for Plastic Debris
CellProfiler and Python scripts for quantitative analysis of size/shape/colour of plastic debris. These scripts process photographs of plastic debris, detecting any objects present and measuring their size, shape, and average colour.
Image Color Correction Script — Plastic Debris
Python script that systematically color-corrects plastic debris photographs for accurate quantitative analysis across different camera setups and lighting
Spero® Quantum Cascade Laser-Based IR Microscopy
IR microspectroscopy instrument capable of rapid analysis of microplastics
Microplastics Image Explorer
Open query-able database of stereomicroscopic images of microplastics.
Saturna Imaging System
A field-deployable imaging and illumination device that can rapidly characterize and quantify visible microplastic particles.
Plastic Detection Model — Image Recognition
Open-source deep learning model that automatically identifies plastics, glass, paper, and other debris in images for marine pollution monitoring.
