Microplastics found in human blood :for the first time
 
[Dutch scientists found 17 of 22 volunteers,
or 77%, had "quantifiable" microplastics in their blood.
Levels were low, at an average of 1.6 micrograms
(1.6 millionths of a gram) in every millilitre of blood.
But the mere presence of microplastics - fragments of
everyday items - in the bloodstream is highly significant.]


[The most common detected plastic was PET,
which is used to make drinks bottles.]


[They describe the plastic fragments as
"ubiquitous pollutants in the living
environment and food chain"
.
But no previous study has been
able to detect them in the blood.]
