University of Birmingham scientists have found that tea and coffee contain the largest amount of microplasty, especially when they are served in cups that can be used.
The new study of the University of Birmingham has shown that one of the largest sources of microplasty is a hot drink. This is reported independent.
Scientists review 155 popular soft drinks, including coffee, tea, energy and gas. It has become the most -Microplasty contains hot tea and coffee, especially when using cups that can be used. Usually, a portion of hot tea from a glass containing about 22 microphone particles, while from glasses – 14. More expensive tea bags show higher indicators – from 24 to 30 particles per cup.
In the case of hot coffee, scientists have finished the main source of microplasty is the material of the cups that can be used. For comparison, cold drinks – tea and coffee – contain significantly fewer plastic impurities.
“We consume millions of cups of tea and coffee every morning, so this is a question that is worth noting. Government and international organizations should take legislative measures to limit the influence of microplasty to a person … He is all in it,” said Mohamed Abdalla Birmingham University.
Scientists emphasize that study results should be the basis for evaluating risk assessment techniques and developing new legislative standards to reduce the impact of microplasty on human health.
Earlier it was reported that scientists have suggested an environmental procedure for pet plastic decay, which is widely used in making bottles and packages.
