| local.seafdecaqd.extract | About 60 percent of particles pulled out from bangus (milkfish) samples in Butuan City and Nasipit in Agusan del Norte province were confirmed to have concentrations of microplastics — an alarming discovery that should spur further study to achieve a “standardized” toxicity threshold for human consumption, according to a group of researchers. A research team at the Department of Science and Technology’s (DOST) National Research Council of the Philippines (NRCP) led by Dr. Rey Capangpangan found that 235 of the 385 extracted particles from 30 bangus samples culled from fish cages in the said areas had microplastics. | en |
