Maternal iron deficiency causes male-to-female sex reversal in mouse embryos - Nature Iron-deficient conditions in pregnant mice can cause XY mouse embryos to develop female rather than male genitalia, revealing that iron metabolism has a role in determining male sex in mice.

A close-up image shows tweezers holding a small, blue piece of microplastic against a blurred brown background. Text on the image reads: “Everything you should know about microplastics.” The UN Environment Programme logo appears in the top right corner.

Microplastics are everywhere — from the ocean floor to Mount Everest, and even in our bodies.

But what are they, why should we care, and what can we do about them?

The air we breathe, the food we eat, the water we drink.

Microplastics are everywhere, and now in our bodies.

One thing we know? They don't belong there.

This #WorldEnvironmentDay, let’s come together to take action and #BeatPlasticPollution.
