    Is there a mask version? As far as I know, the microplastics penetrate our blood brain barriers by first penetrating our lungs as we breath the flying particles in.

      Also, the article doesn’t mention anything about nanoplastics, which are far more dangerous. Nanoplastics have a larger surface area, which makes them more reactive - they can also penetrate cells, and cause damage to DNA, proteins, etc.
