Probiotic Bacteria Adsorb Up to 87% of Nanoplastics in Lab Study

Laboratory research demonstrates that certain probiotic bacteria can adsorb up to 87% of nanoplastics in intestinal conditions, suggesting a potential dietary intervention against microplastic accumulation. The finding is preliminary and based on in vitro experiments, with efficacy and safety in humans unverified. This could inform future therapeutic or nutritional strategies, but no immediate market or policy impact is expected.
