Lapho ufika ekhaya futhi uqala ukuphekela umkhaya wakho, ungasebenzisa ibhodi lokusika lokhuni esikhundleni sepulasitiki ukuze uqobe imifino yakho.
Ucwaningo olusha luphakamisa ukuthi lezi zinhlobo zamabhodi okusika zingakhulula ama-microplastic angaba yingozi empilweni yakho.
Ucwaningo lwakamuva lwaseNingizimu Dakota State University olushicilelwe ngokubambisana ne-American Chemical Society luthole ukuthi phakathi nonyaka, amashidi epulasitiki alahlekelwa inani elifanayo le-microplastics njengesisindo sezinkomishi ze-Solo ezibomvu eziyi-10.
Ocwaningweni, "Amabhodi Okusika: Umthombo Onganakwa We-Microplastics Ekudleni Kwabantu," abacwaningi basika izaqathe kumabhodi e-polyethylene kanye ne-polypropylene.Babe sebegeza imifino futhi basebenzisa izihlungi ezincane ukuze bathole ukuthi zingaki izinhlayiya zepulasitiki ezinamathele ekudleni.
Abacwaningi bathole ukuthi imifino enempilo ingaba phakathi kwezinhlayiya ze-microplastic eyodwa neziyishumi nambili ezinamathela kuzo njalo lapho zisikwa.Ayinambitheki njengogalikhi noma u-anyanisi esobhoni.
Abacwaningi balinganisela ukuthi uma usebenzisa ibhodi lokusika nsuku zonke, ungase udle phakathi kuka-7 no-50 amagremu we-microplastics ebhodini lokusika le-polyethylene kanye namagremu angaba ngu-50 ebhodini lokusika le-polypropylene.Isilinganiso sesisindo senkomishi eyodwa ebomvu singamagremu angu-5.
Ucwaningo oluningi lusazonquma ngokuqondile imiphumela yezempilo ye-microplastics ngenxa yedatha yocwaningo elinganiselwe yesikhathi eside.Abanye ochwepheshe bezempilo bakholelwa ukuthi bangaphazamisa uhlelo lwe-endocrine futhi babangele ukuvuvukala.
Selokhu ajoyina i-WTOP, uLuke Luckett usebambe cishe zonke izikhundla endlini yezindaba, kusukela kumkhiqizi kuya kuntatheli yewebhu futhi manje useyintatheli yabasebenzi.Wayengumlandeli webhola we-UGA oshisekayo.Masihambe, Dougs!
