On eco-toxicology, one thing we have been hearing about in the media is the particles of plastic, be they micro, macro or nano of this polymer if one looks at the base. Can Dr. Mahon tell us something about this eco-toxicology and how the plastic might attract other chemicals? Not only does one have the polymer - that little bit of plastic - but one also has an accumulation of toxins around that.
