Detection and Analysis of Microplastics in Human Sputum

Shumin Huang et al.

Summary: Microplastic pollution is a emerging environmental problem that has little research on its impact on human health. This study investigated the presence of microplastics in human sputum and found that they are ubiquitous in the respiratory tract, indicating inhalation as a potential pathway for plastics to enter the human body. The types and quantities of microplastics were found to be related to factors such as smoking and invasive examination.

Discovery and quantification of plastic particle pollution in human blood

Heather A. Leslie et al.

Summary: Plastic particles are widespread pollutants in the environment and food chain, and this study successfully developed a method to measure the presence of plastic particles in human blood. The study found four high production volume polymers in blood samples and demonstrated that plastic particles can be taken up by the human bloodstream.

Ranking of potential hazards from microplastics polymers in the marine environment

Zhihao Yuan et al.

Summary: This study developed a risk assessment model to rank microplastics (MPs) of potential health concern in marine exposure pathways. The model considered parameters such as toxicity potential, particle size distribution, and degradation status. The screening strategy identified certain polymers as top-ranking contributors to the risk. The findings can inform scientific community and policymakers for better management of MPs.

Spatiotemporal dynamics of microplastics in an urban river network area

Yifan Fan et al.

Summary: This study investigated the spatiotemporal dynamics of microplastics in a typical urban river network in eastern China. The abundance of microplastics was found to be influenced by season and location, with high concentrations observed in commercial and industrial areas, wastewater treatment plant outlets, and urban canals.

Fate of microplastics in the drinking water production

Patrick S. Bauerlein et al.

Summary: Drinking water treatment can effectively remove most microplastics, and the concentration of microplastics in tap water is relatively low. Groundwater has significantly lower microplastic concentrations compared to other water sources. Polyamide, polyethylene terephthalate, and other plastics are the most common types of microplastics. Natural treatment steps such as dune filtration and sedimentation can effectively remove microplastics.

A case study on small-size microplastics in water and snails in an urban river

Lihui An et al.

Summary: Microplastic pollution is widespread in aquatic ecosystems and poses risks to aquatic biota and ecological health. This study investigated microplastic pollution in an urbanized river in Beijing using laser direct infrared chemical imaging. Thirteen and fifteen different polymers were detected in the surface water samples collected in March and July, respectively. Polypropylene, polyamide, and polyethylene were the predominant polymers found in the microplastic particles. The abundance of microplastics in the surface water was significantly higher in July than in March. The study suggests the need for further research on the environmental fate and ecological risks of small-sized microplastics in urban rivers.

Presence of airborne microplastics in human lung tissue

Luis Fernando Amato-Lourenco et al.

Summary: This study confirmed the presence of microplastics in human lung tissues, with polyethylene and polypropylene being the most frequently detected polymers. The potential adverse effects of these microplastics on the respiratory system following inhalation are still unknown, but further research is needed to understand the heterogeneous characteristics of these contaminants.

Detection of Microplastic in Human Placenta and Meconium in a Clinical Setting

Thorsten Braun et al.

Summary: The study identified the presence of microplastics (> 50 μm) in placenta and meconium samples from caesarean deliveries, with polyethylene, polypropylene, polystyrene, and polyurethane being the main types detected. However, airborne polyurethane microplastics were also found in the operating room, indicating potential contamination sources. Further research into nano-sized plastics in human tissues is recommended.
