Polystyrene microplastics exposition on human placental explants induces time-dependent cytotoxicity, oxidative stress and metabolic alterations

IntroductionMicroplastics (MPs) are environmental pollutants that pose potential risks to living organisms. MPs have been shown to accumulate in human organs, including the placenta. In this study, we investigated the biochemical impact of 5 μm polystyrene microplastics (PS-MPs) on term placental ch...
