Develop a method to detect nanoparticles in tap water using AF4

40 L tap water was ultra-filtered by M10 lab unit using 10 kDa regenerated membrane and 800 nm syringe filter to get the NPs. The filter NPs are then separated and characterized using asymmetrical flow field-flow fractionation with coupled multi angle light scattering (AF4-MALS). Calibration curve for determining the size distribution is made by polystyrene latex bead (20, 60, 100, 300, and 500 nm
