Mini-review explores microplastics as a feedstock for paracetamol, suggesting implications for public health.
The presence of microplastics in food has emerged as a major public health issue. At the same time, waste plastic may now be turned into valuable medications like paracetamol thanks to synthetic biology. With an emphasis on technological viability, existing obstacles, and wider ramifications for pharmaceutical innovation and environmental health, this mini-review investigates whether foodborne microplastics may be a sustainable feedstock for pharmaceutical manufacturing.
