How Biodegradability Testing can help the Microplastic Crisis

The microplastic crisis refers to the widespread presence of tiny plastic particles in the environment, posing significant threats to ecosystems, wildlife, and potentially human health. Microplastics are small pieces of plastic less than 5 millimeters in size, and they can come from various sources, including the breakdown of larger plastic items, microbeads in personal care…

Biodegradability Screening Assessments

Biodegradability Screening Assessments A biodegradability screening assessment is a preliminary evaluation used to estimate the potential of a substance or product to biodegrade under specific conditions. This assessment is typically conducted in the early stages of product development or during the screening of different materials to determine their environmental impact. The goal is to identify…

Key Benefits of Biodegradability Testing

Biodegradability testing is a crucial process that assesses the ability of a substance to break down and return to the environment through natural processes. Here are some key benefits of biodegradability testing: Environmental Impact Assessment: Helps evaluate the potential environmental impact of a substance or product. Provides insights into the likelihood of a material causing…
