Negative impact of oral exposure to polystyrene microplastics on glucose tolerance and intestinal environment in mice is independent of particle size

Negative impact of oral exposure to polystyrene microplastics on glucose tolerance and intestinal environment in mice is independent of particle size

Abstract Background Surging plastic pollution poses health issues worldwide. As the production of plastics has been skyrocketing, the impact of microplastics (MPs) on ecosystems is no longer negligible. Our previous study revealed that oral administration of MPs to mice impaired glucose tolerance in...
