Current Insights into Potential Effects of Micro-Nanoplastics on Human Health by in-vitro Tests

Plastic nanoparticles in the food chain! Therefore, there is an important gap in the knowledge about NPL contamination in the edible parts of fishes. https://t.co/o2tHubgDHI

Mussels Not so healthy anymore! MPLs in mussels were approximately a thousand-fold higher, per unit weight or volume than in the surrounding sediment and water, showing the potential of bioaccumulation of filter-feeding organisms. https://t.co/o2tHubgDHI

Trojan Horses by the zillion!🐎 The subepithelial area of the Peyer’s patches can store non-degradable particles, and consequently they disrupt the immunity processes. https://t.co/o2tHubgDHI

Trojan Horses! 🐎 The M cells of these patches can transport particles (0.1–10 μm) from the intestine to the mucosal lymphoid tissues, responsible for initiating immune responses to specific antigens that are encountered along all mucosal surfaces. https:/
