  • Analytical Service Laboratories
  • Environmental Scientist

Presenter: Dr. Sebastian Primpke

Dr. Sebastian Primpke entered the field of microplastic analytics at the Alfred-Wegener-Institute Helmholtz Centre for Polar- and Marine Research in 2015. In his current research  he is focused on the automation and harmonization of spectroscopic analyses of microplastic particles.

Presenter: Dr. Marten Seeba

Dr. Marten Seeba graduated in chemistry from the University of Göttingen before joining Bruker as an application expert for FT-IR and IR laser microscopy. He is a point of contact for our customers and as such has gained a great deal of expertise in many applications such as microplastics, pharmaceuticals, tissue analysis and materials science.
