Surgeons use ligatures to tie off blood vessels during surgery to stop them from bleeding. These ligatures date from the late 19thC & are made from horse hair. The fineness of the hair made it useful for both sutures & ligatures. The hair was sterilized & sold in rolls of 100.
The shiny surfaces of thick, waxy leaf cuticles are incredibly similar to the plastics spread across our planet 🍃🍼 This fact could be the key to turning the plastic pollution problem around! How? Let's take a look 👇🧵
