Microplastics Detected in Human and Canine Testicles
New study reveals pervasive presence of microplastics, raising concerns about reproductive health impacts.
- Researchers found microplastics in all human and dog testicle samples analyzed.
- The average concentration of microplastics was nearly three times higher in human samples than in canine samples.
- Polyethylene and PVC were the most common types of microplastics detected.
- Scientists suggest a potential link between microplastics and declining sperm counts.
- Further research is needed to understand the full health implications of these findings.
