Microplásticos: una amenaza emergente en la salud pública
AI summary Read the abstract
This public health review synthesizes the emerging evidence on microplastics as a growing threat, documenting their presence across human tissues and organs and the associated risks including inflammation, endocrine disruption, and toxicity from co-contaminants. The review underscores the urgency of regulatory action and individual exposure-reduction strategies as microplastics have now been confirmed in blood, lungs, placenta, and other critical human tissues.
