“…39−41 BPA exposure can induce the development of several endocrine disorders, including precocious puberty, female and male infertility, and hormone-dependent tumors and several metabolic disorders, including polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). 42,43 It can also cause allergic contact dermatitis (ACD) 44 and chronic diseases, including diabetes, obesity, or insulin resistance. 45 These pathologies are associated with the activation of the immune system.…”

Plastic is produced, used, and accumulated exponentially. Humans can take it through the food chain, and microplastics can be potentially toxic to humans. In this study, we analyzed the surface patterns of microplastics and their effects on humans using polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS). The surface analysis of these microplastics will be used as a standardized measurement method for microplastic detection and will be used as an indicator of the impact of environmental pollution caused by microplastics on humans. We have used a statistical method to analyze the shape of the milled microplastics and estimated the local curvature for each plastic type and found that PVC microplastics have a more rugged shape than the ABS microplastics. We also analyzed the toxicity of PVC and ABS microplastics. Larger PVC tended to induce the release of interleukin 6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α). Smaller ABS induced the release of IL-6 at high concentrations. However, larger ABS tended to induce the release of TNF-α at all concentrations. Thus, we concluded that microplastics can induce immune responses.

“…23 In 1956, Malten 24 described five patients with contact eczema and positive patch tests to UP resins in a group of 30 workers in an aeroplane factory. Most cases of allergic contact dermatitis have been due to UP resin contact in lamination work, 9,[24][25][26] in painting, 27 or in the use of UV light-cured inks. 28 UP dust from reinforced plastics products 9,29,30 or UP automobile repair cement 6,8 has also caused allergic contact dermatitis.…”
