MICROPLASTICS IMAGING SYSTEM
SATURNA
STANDARDIZED. COMPREHENSIVE. RAPID.
To understand how microplastics break down, move through the oceans and collect on coastlines, researchers and community monitoring groups must quantify a robust set of particle size parameters. Saturna is a portable, standardized image collection system used to rapidly quantify and analyze microplastic physical attributes.
PORTABLE & STANDARDIZED
Accelerate your Research
Saturna is a portable research tool that uses customized computer vision algorithms to accurately analyze visible microplastic particles such as those from beach cleanups and net tows.
