Fig. 11

Photomicrographic mosaics captured under darkfield illumination of pre-treated sphagnum moss samples on 25 mm filter membranes. All particles have been visually isolated from the filter background. This figure serves as a visual guideline for target A%, which should not surpass 5% on filters intended for microscopic analysis of MPs below 500 µm in diameter. A% is acceptable for samples (A) and (B), whereas (C) should not be analyzed
