Special Issue: Toxicity of Metals, Metal-Based Drugs, and Microplastics

Summary

This roundup pulls together new research on how everyday exposures — like tiny plastic particles, metals in the air we breathe, and even some cancer drugs — can affect our health, especially when it comes to cell damage and toxicity. It's a collection of studies rather than one single experiment, but together they highlight a growing concern: we're surrounded by more of these substances than we realize, and scientists are still working to understand exactly how much harm they cause. For consumers, it's a reminder that research on microplastics and metal exposure is actively evolving, so staying informed matters.
