Cross-organ multilayered biological perturbations driven by food chain-transferred microplastics: implications for mammalian health effects and risks
Microplastic pollution has emerged as a global environmental and health concern. To elucidate its realistic biological impact, this study established a food chain‑transferred exposure model using polystyrene microplastics, from mealworms to mice. Multimodal analyses of six organs revealed extensive microplastic accumul...
