10^-3 ug or as they put it in the abstract:
Is basically nothing in terms of mass.
For a 100g figure you would need the micro plastic of Billions of people (if I'm not mistaken).
However, I'm not sure if they factored in j balls.
So check my math here.
The average Funko Pop is about 120g
The average testicle is about 20g
Per that article, the average testicle has 330 micrograms per gram of plastic, which means about 0.0066g per ball.
You would need 18,182 balls - or the balls of 9,091 dudes - to make a Funko Pop
The J stands for "Just plastic"
