Microplastics into nanoplastics
lundi 3 août 2020 à 02:00Tiny amphipod crustaceans break up microplastics into minute nanoplastics smaller than typical cells.
Nanoplastics could be more harmful or less, to various species of life; only investigation will tell. The reason to suspect they are more harmful is that they have more surface area per given volume, which could mean that toxic chemicals would escape from them at a higher rate.
