The journal Current Biology has published data from a study of American scientists from the University of Washington, showing a more significant negative impact of plastic on the body. In particular, the researchers concluded that chemicals from the composition of plastic bottles that were previously considered safe, and in reality harm the ability to reproduce, and in several generations.
Today it is well known how hazardous bisphenol A. once he was used extensively in the manufacture of plastic products, but after research on its dangers bisphenol a began to prohibit the use, for example, in the manufacture of plastic bottles. In many cases, this chemical was replaced by bisphenol S, which is considered safe.
Researchers from Washington state University studied mice and as a result were able to confirm that plastic products can hardly be considered safe in principle. In particular, it was found that even a plastic of new generation, containing previously used chemicals to provoke the development of abnormalities of sperm and eggs, as well as infertility.
“With or without bisphenol A, plastic products that lead to signs of violations, cannot be considered safe,” the researchers noted.
They argue that even being completely cleansed from all the impurities of BPA, plastic still shows ability to influence reproductive health, and its impact will continue for at least three generations. According to scientists, this effect is provided by the content in the articles of plastic other chemical substances, often new and unknown to regulatory authorities.
