Real-time microplastics detection: From 24-hour lab testing to quantum sensing
Powered by MPDetect's breakthrough quantum sensing technology, MPConnect transforms microplastics monitoring from slow lab-dependent processes to real-time, in-water detection.
Traditional spectroscopy methods (FTIR/Raman) take 24+ hours and fail in water. MPDetect uses Vibrational Strong Coupling to deliver results in seconds, directly in water systems. MPConnect turns that real-time data into actionable intelligence.
Why MPDetect Changes Everything
MPDetect reimagines microplastics detection with breakthrough quantum sensing technology
Real-Time Detection
Results in under 1 second, not 24+ hours. Monitor microplastics as they flow through your system.
Works Directly in Water
Traditional spectroscopy fails in aqueous environments. MPDetect operates seamlessly in water without noise interference.
Quantum Sensing
Powered by Vibrational Strong Coupling—a breakthrough in quantum photonics—not classical spectroscopy methods.
No Lab Dependency
Inline monitoring eliminates sample transport, storage delays, and external lab costs.
