Microplastics found in every human placenta tested in study
- justforasingle 3y agoI always personally thought the principal source of microplastics was polyester (polyethylene terephthalate). I most often see it linked to plastic bags and containers instead. I'm half way to replacing all my clothes with organic fibres - seeing the mass of polyester in my dryers filter every week was starting to spook me out and the airborne 'dust' blowing off it when removed reminded me of asbestos.
