Microplastics and nanoplastics have emerged as a major and growing health concern, with recent data revealing alarming levels of human exposure and contamination. Thus, there is a clear and urgent need for an effective method to remove microplastics and nanoplastics from the human body. Here, we provide the first evidence that extracorporeal apheresis, a therapeutic technique established around the world, may have the potential to achieve this goal.
