\u4e00\u3001The world’s only fully automated system, delivering a 20-fold increase in efficiency<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Currently, microplastic detection worldwide remains heavily reliant on manual processes. Traditional laboratory workflows involve multiple steps\u2014such as sample pretreatment, slide preparation, microscopic observation, spectral acquisition, and data comparison\u2014which are time-consuming, labor-intensive, and prone to human error.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The AML518 Microplastic Analyzer for Water is the first to incorporate a robotic arm and an intelligent integrated operation system, enabling automatic sample handling, focusing, scanning, verification, and report generation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sample rack accommodates 10\u201320 microscope slides, and the instrument supports continuous 24-hour operation, boosting efficiency by up to 20 times compared to manual methods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u4e8c\u3001Comparison of Three Technical Approaches: Raman Spectroscopy Emerges as the Winner<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are currently three mainstream technologies for microplastic analysis:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Infrared Spectroscopy: Struggles to identify particles smaller than 10 \u00b5m; requires dry sample preparation (precluding wet analysis) and involves expensive equipment.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Pyrolysis-Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (Py-GC-MS): Capable of detecting nanoplastics but entails extremely high costs, making widespread adoption difficult.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Raman Spectroscopy: Accurately identifies various types of microplastics; supports wet analysis, requires no complex sample pretreatment, and offers excellent cost-effectiveness.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    The AML518 ultimately utilizes Raman spectroscopy technology, supporting the identification of microplastics in the 300 \u00b5m to 5000 \u00b5m (0.3 mm to 5 mm) range. It employs a dual-laser design (785 nm\/1064 nm) to effectively mitigate fluorescence interference, achieving an optimal balance between accuracy and cost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \u4e09\u3001Automated workflow enabling unattended operation<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The AML518 features a fully optimized workflow:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Flexible operation: Users can choose between fully automated, semi-automated, and manual modes to meet diverse testing requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Pre-treatment: Samples undergo oxidation, digestion, sedimentation, vacuum filtration, and transfer to prepare slides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Robotic handling: Automated, seamless slide loading and unloading.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Intelligent detection: The microscope automatically focuses and images the sample in a 12-grid layout, creating profiles for each microplastic particle (including coordinates, morphology, and particle size).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Spectral identification: A dual-optical-path design enhances signal sensitivity, followed by automated database matching and classification.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Verification mechanism: Suspected samples undergo automatic recalibration and re-testing to ensure reliable results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    One-click reporting: Automated generation of test reports containing images, data, and classification results.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
