Scientists at the American Chemical Society reported that IV bags and tubes can release thousands of microplastic particles into the bloodstream. Their study found that a 250 milliliter IV bag may deliver about 7,500 particles. Most were extremely small, between 1 and 20 micrometers, which makes them difficult to filter out.#cameroon  
 
Researchers warn this is a new direct pathway of plastic exposure for humans. The long-term health impact remains unclear, but the study raises concerns about the safety of medical materials and highlights the need for stricter testing in hospitals.
