In a new scientific paper, three physicians report that switching from bottled water to filtered tap water could cut your microplastic intake by about 90% — from 90,000 to 4,000 particles each year.

On its surface, entanglement allows particles to communicate over vast distances instantly, apparently violating the speed of light. But while entangled particles are connected, they don't ...

About 10% of the detected plastic particles were microplastics, and the other 90% were nanoplastics. Microplastics are between 5 millimeters to 1 micrometer; nanoplastics are particles less than 1 ...

Particles released into the air as vehicles brake may be more damaging than those coming out of the exhaust, according to a study in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

And now for the first time, research conducted at MedUni Vienna has shown how these minute particles manage to breach the blood-brain barrier and as a consequence penetrate the brain.

A groundbreaking new study shows how the presence of these tiny plastic particles in arteries likely affects your health—and may increase your risk of death Microplastics are turning up ...

In the new study, scientists developed a novel imaging technique which showed that the number of nanoplastic particles in bottled water was between 10 and 100 times higher than previously ...
