Scientists Reviewed 7,000 Studies On Microplastics. Their Alarming Conclusion Puts Humanity On Notice
It's been 20 years since a paper in the journal Science showed the environmental accumulation of tiny plastic fragments and fibres. It named the pa
Scientists Find Microplastics in Human Brain Tissue Above the Nose
Microplastics are inescapable. These miniscule plastic particles have been found at ancient archaeological sites, in freshly fallen snow on Antarctica, at the top of Mount Everest and deep in the Mariana Trench.
More evidence found of microplastics infiltrating human brain, study says
Scientists in Brazil have found more evidence of microplastics infiltrating the human body. While it has been previously reported that microplastics were found in human brain tissue, this recent study discovered these tiny particles in the olfactory bulbs of the brain which are responsible for processing smells.
Microplastics Found In Human Brain, Study Says—After Being Detected In Hearts, Blood
Microplastics have been found in brain tissue above the nose, suggesting a likely passageway for microscopic plastic shards and fibers to enter the brain after already being discovered in nearly every organ in the human body, according to a new study published Monday in the journal JAMA Network Open.
Researchers find microplastics in human brains, an apparent first
Evidence of microplastics, which are in everything from clothes to water bottles, has been found in human brains, researchers said.
Microplastics found in nose tissue at base of brain, study says
Microplastics can invade the olfactory bulb of the human nose, which transmits smells to the brain, a new study found.
Study: Breathing might bring microplastics into brain
However, the new study suggests that there's "a potential pathway for the translocation of microplastics to the brain" via the olfactory bulb, according to a team led by Luis Fernando Amato-Lourenco, of the Free University Berlin and Thais Mauad, an associate professor of pathology at the University of Sao Paolo in Brazil.
New Study Detects Microplastics in Human Brain Tissue
Our microplastics problem isn't going away. These tiny fragments of plastic pollution have previously shown up in our lungs, in ancient rocks, and in bottled water. A new study reveals the extent to which they're infiltrating the brain,
