It turned out that Human emotion affects the structure of tears

A Dutch artist named Maurice Mikkers is a lab technician before he took art education. He was discovered how to actually the tears might looks. He is also investigating how the temperature to the cause of the crying, be able to influence the structure of tears.

"With the dark part of microscope will illuminate the tears on a black background, so that you will be able to see how beautiful the patterns and shapes that exist there," said Mikkers. "I think the tears do not adequately be studied only, so we need to express it," he continued.
It turned out, our personalities also be able to be seen from the shape of our tears under a microscope lens and You could be seen how unique your tears are. (Picture from: http://adf.ly/1dlyv3)
He said there are three main types of tears, ie the basic tears, which keeps our eyes not dry, irritation tears, and emotional tears. Mikkers want to see how the tears that came out because of the sad movie is able to bring the differences in the structures of tears with caused by the toes stumbling stone.

But from that known by Mikkers, the emotional tears have three additional materials, namely stress hormone prolactin, adrenocorticotropic hormone, and pain killers leucine enkephalin.

It turned out, our personalities also be able to be seen from the shape of our tears under a microscope lens. Mikkers started collecting various kinds of tears. And then the tears will be placed on the microscopic screen. The tear crystallization will take between 5 to 30 minutes depending on the environment.

These images show just how unique your tears are. Here are several pictures of the emotional tears. (All pictures taken from: http://adf.ly/1dlyv3)
