The cause of crying determines the composition of tears

Although the appearance looks exactly the same, but the tears start from different situations, such as when grieving or eating chili or onions, there is a very different structure.

Tears composition depends on the cause of crying

Maurice Mikkers, a Dutch photographer, explored the invisible invisible differences of tears.

Mr. Mikkers said: "I decided to start an evening experiment with my friends. I asked them to cut their balls , eat hot chili peppers, look at the fans that were spinning at full speed or cry because of sadness or To see if there are any similarities or differences in the structure of tears forming, I have taken every tear that spilled under the microscope. "

Scientifically, tears are divided into three different forms, based on their origin : the basic type is continuously released to maintain eye lubrication; the type of reflex that is released to deal with the irritating factors, such as when an onion or eye contact; and finally, the kind of spirit, triggered by emotions.

Scientists have discovered that different types of tears are made up of different molecules. For example, emotional tears contain hormones that act as pain relievers and are released when the owner is stressed.

Because the tears are condensed into salt, they also look very different when crystallized and observed under a microscope. Their structure in photographs is mainly crystalline salt, with different shapes due to the formation and drying out.
