Title - Analysis of microplastics from Great Australia Bight using label free spiral microfluidic device
Abstract - This research aims at analyzing the microplastics present in the deep-sea sediment samples collected from the Great Australian Bight (GAB). A label free spiral microfluidic device is used for separating the microplastic using the principle of spiral microfluidics. The research is bifurcated into two segments, firstly analyzing the functioning of microfluidic device by optimizing the parameters like flow rate and fluid density used for separation and lastly combining the observations from the initial experimental runs to carry out the separation on samples from Great Australian Bight (GAB). Finally, an initial foundation is laid for carrying out further research on separation of microplastics.
