BPA exposure from thermal receipts

I have heard that supermarket receipts, or any kind of thermal receipts also release microplastics or hormonal disrupted which are absorbed by the skin. One way to avoid touching them is to ask them to be put in the bag, but at some point you are going to touch them. Micro plastics seem to be Omnipresent.It is difficult to escape them.And like you said ,if we try to avoid microplastics every time paranoia sets in.

the thermal receipt per se in our research does not show to release micro plastics, but rather releases the BPA and specially if you touch the receipt after using hand sanitizer. But even today it’s not a huge source for BPA release.
