新的研究表明,基于淀粉的微塑料可能会损害健康,空气中的微塑料可以进入食物链。
New studies suggest starch-based microplastics may harm health, and airborne microplastics could enter food chains.
研究表明,基于淀粉的微塑料原意是传统塑料的一种更绿色的替代物,可能对小鼠的健康构成风险,包括肝脏损伤和内脏细菌的干扰。
Studies show that starch-based microplastics, meant to be a greener alternative to traditional plastics, may pose health risks to mice, including liver damage and disruptions to gut bacteria.
同时,研究表明,空气中的微塑料可以进入植物叶,有可能通过食物导致人类接触。
Meanwhile, research reveals that airborne microplastics can enter plant leaves, potentially leading to human exposure through food.
这些调查结果突出表明,有必要对来自不同来源的微塑料对健康和环境的影响进行更多的研究。
These findings highlight the need for more research on the health and environmental impacts of microplastics from various sources.
