Nano- and microplastics in pediatric tonsil tissue: bioaccumulation, distribution, and immunomodulatory effects in human lymphoid aggregate organoids

2026-06-01

Abstract excerpt

Nano- and microplastics (NMPs), by-products of the fragmentation and degradation of plastic products, are ubiquitous environmental contaminants, yet their burden in pediatric immune tissues and functional consequences for developing immunity remain unknown. Here we report the first comprehensive characterization of NMPs in surgically excised pediatric tonsils (n = 30) using pyrolysis gas chromatography– mass spect...
