TapScore Microplastics Water Test

Uncover the unseen pollutants hiding in your tap or bottled water with the help of Tap Score water test package. Designed for the targeted testing of microplastics in drinking water, this package arms you with all the requisite materials to correctly collect and send a sample for specialized laboratory testing. The problem of microplastics in our drinking water supply is gradually causing legit concerns owing to the unknown health effects on humans, and wildlife. These hazardous particles enter the water supply due to a variety of pollution and waste pathways- from the wear and tear of tires against pavement, synthetic clothes shedding particles when washed, airborne paint dust, and the shedding of microfibers. The Tap Score water test package offers you a detailed analysis of these minute but plentiful pollutants including polypropylene particles, polyethylene, polystyrene, and polyvinyl chloride particles, ranging between 1 micron (um) and 5mm in size. Understand that even as the methods for the analysis of these microplastics are in a stage of constant development, they still hold many limitations. Specifically, clean water samples such as drinking water often carry very low concentrations of microplastics that are difficult to measure due to the current technological limitations. The smaller sizes of microplastics are typically the toughest to detect but also the most abundant. Keeping these challenges in view, this test should be ideally considered as a screening test that is effective at identifying larger particle sizes, and not as a definitive measure of all microplastics concentrations. Take note that the package is undersigned for drinking water specifically, and goes void for the analysis of marine or surface water. Analyze the fact that bottled water comes with its own unique challenges of containing two times as many microplastics per liter on an average in comparison to tap water. The sources of bigger concern are during the bottling process where the water becomes susceptible to the entry of microplastics from tires, paint dust, or microfibers. Stand earnestly interested in understanding the concentration of microplastics in your drinking water supply? Choose wisely with the Tap Score water test package. Stand informed, stay healthy.
