   #Microplastics found in every #human #testicle in study
   #Scientists say discovery may be linked to decades-long decline in #sperm counts in men around the world
   Scientists tested 23 human #testes and 47 from #dogs. They found microplastic #pollution in every sample. The human testicles had been preserved and so their sperm count could not be measured. However, the sperm count in the dogs' testes could be assessed and was lower in samples with higher contamination with PVC
