Micro- and nanoplastics breach the blood–brain barrier in mice
Why do this science? Are we just feeding mice plastic for kicks? Like yeah who would've known that nanoparticles pass the blood brain barrier - who cares?<p>Can't we just do some scans/biopsies on humans to assess if we have plastic in the brain and start from there?<p>How does this experiment further anything? I'm kind of appalled that this is some people's job - it's pointless, stupid and cruel, and done by scientists who get paid the big bucks doing it.<p>I know I'm a little ranty - but I'm serious. Why do people do these experiments?
