Summary

MNPLs effects on human health are still preliminary. Workers exposed to plastic residues are exposed constantly to MNPLs. One of these jobs corresponds to greenhouse workers, that could be considered as a population highly exposed to plastics. The objective of the research is to be able to detect MNPLs on body fluids as well as their potential genotoxic and immunological damage.

Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

Biomonitoring of MNPLs in biological samples of greenhouse workers and controls

Detection of biomarkers of exposure and genotoxic effect in biological blood, urine, exhalated air condensate, and feces
