Assessing the Impact of Polyethylene Nano/Microplastic Exposure on Human Vaginal Keratinocytes

The global rise of single-use throw-away plastic products has elicited a massive increase in the nano/microplastics (N/MPLs) exposure burden in humans. Recently, it has been demonstrated that disposable period products may release N/MPLs with usage, which represents a potential threat to women’s hea...
