Oligomer-Nanoparticle Release from PLA Bioplastics Catalyzed by Gut Enzymes and Its Acute Inflammatory Effect

2022-07-21

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Although the risks of microplastics in environmental exposure and human health are being increasingly studied, little is known about the behavior of “eco-friendly” bioplastics in humans, especially their effects on our gastrointestinal tract. Here we demonstrate that enzymatic hydrolysis of bio-based polylactic acid (PLA) microplastics rapidly generates an excess of nanoplastic particle...
