What are the dangers of the fluorescent brightener on the packaging box to the human body?

A fluorescent brightener, or white dye, is a complex organic compound. Its characteristic is that it can excite the incident light to produce fluorescence, so that the dyed substance obtains a sparkling effect similar to glowstone, so that the substance seen by the naked eye is very white, and the effect of whitening is achieved.

The harm of fluorescent agents to the human body.

Fluorescent agents are not as easy to be decomposed as general chemical components, but accumulate in the human body, producing many harmful effects and greatly reducing human immunity; Fluorescents bind to proteins outside the wound and can also hinder wound healing; Fluorescent agents can cause human cells to have a tendency to mutate, and their toxicity accumulates in the liver or other vital organs, which can become a potential carcinogenic factor.

Cause damage to the blood system: chemical substances are easy to pollute human blood, although blood has a certain self-purification ability, trace amounts of harmful substances into it, will be diluted, decomposed, adsorbed and discharged, but long-term, a large number of toxic substances poured into, will cause qualitative changes; When it enters the blood circulation, it will damage the cell membrane of red blood cells, causing hemolysis.

Related knowledge: At present, the mandatory standards for food paper packaging implemented by the state have not made clear requirements for the outer layer, and because there is no hard project requirement that fluorescent substances cannot be detected, as long as the fluorescent substances such as paper barrels and paper bowls do not exceed the standard, the detection requires professional instruments, and it is difficult for the public to judge whether the instant noodle barrel contains fluorescent substances with the naked eye from the terminal supermarkets and other sales markets.

When consumers choose to identify, they can see whether the identification of the outer packaging is detailed, and they can also smell the smell of the paper cup, especially the smell of ink, and at the same time face the paper cup to the light to see if there are impurities, but in general, the manufacturer needs to ensure the quality of the paper from the source.

No, you don't eat the box, and the brightener can't be absorbed by the body. However, the inferior manufacturer maybe, you can be confident in Hony Chemical Engineer.

Fluorescent brighteners contain chemical ingredients, which are of course harmful to the human body and have a very high risk of causing cancer, so you should stay away from such things.

Fluorescent brighteners are harmful to the body. Try not to touch these things directly with your body.

Fluorescent agent (also known as brightener, optical brightener, fluorescent brightener mold section), can be irradiated with a 365nm ultraviolet small flashlight (can also be an ultraviolet money detector), if there is blue-purple fluorescence (generally blue, purple, but also green, red, and the original color contrast changes, obviously much brighter and brighter), it contains fluorescent. This kind of flashlight is sold on TB, search (fluorescent agent detection), not expensive generally more than 10-30 yuan, or more practical, textiles, plastic products, skin care products, paper, etc. (some foods have special fluorescent reactions, such as rice fat will fluoresce reactions) containing fluorescent agents can be irradiated. In the future, pay attention to testing, especially for babies, or personal products and skin care products.

If it is a three-no product, there is indeed a risk of containing fluorescent agents.

In everyday life, there are many opportunities to come into contact with fluorescent agents. As long as it does not exceed a certain standard (the above method can only detect whether it contains fluorescent agent, not whether it exceeds the standard), it will bring a lot of benefits to our Shengdan pants. If you come into contact with it in excess, it can cause harm to the human body.

Fluorescent brighteners are usually not suitable for food use, so it has a certain toxicity, although it is low toxicity, but it is also not suitable for consumption.
