SciencePhoto: News-MedicalScientists Discover Water-Triggered Reactions Explaining Microplastic Harm
Scientists have discovered that microplastics can trigger intrinsic physicochemical reactions when in contact with water, which may explain their harmful effects on human health. These reactions at microplastic-water interfaces can produce harmful molecules, potentially causing inflammation linked to diseases and increased mortality. This finding sheds light on why microplastics, now found in human bodies, pose serious health risks.
