Bottled water contains up to 100 times more tiny pieces of plastic than was previously estimated, scientists said. The average liter of bottled water contains around 240,000 detectable plastic fragments, researchers wrote in a study published Monday in the journalProceedings of the National Academy o...
根据第二段“Previous studies have found that a liter of bottled water can contain tens of thousands of identifiable plastic particles. But they stopped at the one micrometer level due to technological restrictions.(此前的研究发现,一升瓶装水可能含有数万个可识别的塑料颗粒。但由于技术限制,它们停留...
The average liter of bottled water has nearly a quarter million invisible pieces of very small plastic known as nanoplastics, a recent study says. 最近的一项研究表明,每升瓶装水中平均含有近 25 万个看不见的非常小的塑料,即纳米塑料。 Researchers found the nanoplastics with a microscope using dual ...

In fact, studies have found that microplastics, which are small plastic particles, have been found in bottled water, raising concerns about the potential health impacts of consuming these particles. In light of these issues, it is important to consider alternative solutions to reduce the pollution ...
"There is a huge world of nanoplastics to be studied," said the researchers.Even if nanoplastics make up 90% of the number of plastic particles found in bottled water, they make up far less in mass, they said.However, this fact provides little comfort: It's the numbers rather than mass...

Testing three popular brands of bottled water sold in the US (they declined to name them), the researchers analyzed them for the plastic particles present down to just 100 nanometers in size, which had previously been invisible under conventional imaging. They...

根据文章第一段“In a trailblazing new study, researchers have discovered bottled water sold in stores can contain 10 to 100 times more bits of plastic than previously estimated—nanoparticles(纳米塑料)are so tiny that they cannot be seen under a microscope. (在一项开创性的新研究中,研究人员发现...
