Preserving brain health by minimizing microplastic output from resin histology.

J Histotechnol

January 2025

Mechanical Engineering, Orthopedic Bioengineering Research Laboratory, Colorado State University, Fort Collins, CO, USA.

With an increasing concentration of microplastics (MPs) in every biome, laboratories with a focus on creating histology slides from resin-embedded specimens could be partially responsible for expanding the emission of microscopic resinous particles into the environment. With current research elucidating harmful health impacts from MPs, releasing them incautiously is arguably unethical and, in the near future, plausibly illegal. The Orthopedic Bioengineering Research Laboratory (OBRL) is in Colorado, a state known not only for its natural beauty but also for its increasing number of legislative amendments aimed at reducing plastic pollution.
