I-Microplastics: iibhodi zokusika ezinezithako ezifihlakeleyo ezinokuthi zongezwe ekutyeni

Xa ufika ekhaya uze uqalise ukuphekela intsapho yakho, ungasebenzisa ibhodi yokusika yamaplanga endaweni yeplastiki ukunqunqa imifuno yakho.
Uphando olutsha lubonisa ukuba ezi ntlobo zeebhodi zokusika zinokukhupha i-microplastics enokuba yingozi kwimpilo yakho.
Uphononongo olutshanje lweYunivesithi yaseSouth Dakota State epapashwe ngokubambisana ne-American Chemical Society yafumanisa ukuba ngaphezu konyaka, amaphepha eplastiki alahlekelwa ngumlinganiselo ofanayo we-microplastics njengobunzima beekomityi ze-Solo ezibomvu ze-10.
Kwisifundo, "Iibhodi zokusika: Umthombo ongahoywayo weMicroplastics kukutya kwabantu," abaphandi banqumla iinqathe kwiibhodi ze-polyethylene kunye ne-polypropylene.Emva koko bahlamba imifuno kwaye basebenzisa i-microfilters ukujonga ukuba mangaphi amaqhekeza eplastiki abambelele ekutyeni.
Abaphandi baye bafumanisa ukuba imifuno enempilo inokuquka phakathi kwe-microplastic enye kunye neshumi elinesibini leencinci ezinamathele kuzo rhoqo xa zisikwa.Ayinancasa njengegalikhi okanye itswele kwisuphu.
Abaphandi baqikelela ukuba ukuba usebenzisa ibhodi yokusika yonke imihla, ungafaka phakathi kwe-7 kunye ne-50 grams ye-microplastics evela kwibhodi yokusika i-polyethylene kunye ne-50 grams ye-polypropylene cutting board.Ubunzima obuqhelekileyo bekomityi enye ebomvu malunga ne-5 grams.
Uninzi lwezifundo azikaqinisekisi ngokuqinisekileyo iziphumo zempilo ze-microplastics ngenxa yedatha yophononongo yexesha elide.Ezinye iingcali zempilo zikholelwa ukuba zingaphazamisa inkqubo ye-endocrine kwaye ibangele ukuvuvukala.
Ukusukela oko wajoyina iWTOP, uLuke Luckett ubambe phantse zonke izikhundla kwigumbi leendaba, ukusuka kumvelisi ukuya kumnxibelelanisi wewebhu kwaye ngoku uyintatheli yabasebenzi.Wayengumntu othanda ibhola ekhatywayo ye-UGA.Masihambe, Dougs!
