Microplastic Contamination of Human Sperm before In Vitro Fertilization Warrants Attention for Early Life Exposure Risks

26 Jun 2025

Abstract excerpt

The global prevalence of infertility boosts the demands for assisted reproduction technology (ART) and medical plasticware for processing human reproductive cells. The direct exposure risks of these cells to microplastic (MPs) potentially released from the plasticware, especially when sperm is extracted by mincing testicular tissues with sharp tools, remain unknown. Also, there are methodological challenges in...
