Particles In Tea. What damage are these compounds wreaking? The study authors acknowledge that the amount of plastics in a single cup of tea—around 16 micrograms—is not likely to pose any acute toxicity risks, but questions linger about the impacts of. One cup from a single tea bag could contain 11.6 billion microplastic and 3.1 billion nanoplastic particles, the researchers estimated from their results, published wednesday in. According to their results, a nylon teabag starts to degrade in hot water (at 95°c), thus leading to the release of particles into the tea. Those found in tea and tea gardens originate from agricultural plastic. Microplastics are plastic particles that are 5 mm in diameter or less. We show that steeping a single plastic teabag at brewing temperature (95 °c) releases approximately 11.6 billion microplastics and 3.1 billion nanoplastics into a single cup of the beverage. The research is still in its infancy, but here’s what we know so far. To explore the current status of microplastic pollution and future research trends in tea, we reviewed the distribution, abundance, shape, size and sources of microplastics in tea.

Plastic in tea bags?! Yup, billions of particles PER CUP!
