Percentage change of chemicals in adipose tissues as a result of additional chemical exposure via MPs (top panel) and the initial adipose tissue concentrations from dietary intake of compounds (bottom panel). (A) BaP; (B) DEHP; (C) PCB126. The yellow highlighted parts show how the percentage change varies depending on the change in adipose tissue concentrations. Inset in panel A shows the rate of change of chemical leaching from MPs for ages between 43 and 52 years to demonstrate that the maxima adipose tissue concentrations coincide with the minima of the leaching rate of chemicals from MPs.
