Hydrogen Peroxide Skin Absorption
On whether hydrogen peroxide can be absorbed through the skin
If hydrogen peroxide is absorbed by the skin, it is useful in medicine and chemical industry. However, people often wonder whether it can enter the body through the skin?
Looking at common sense, the skin is also the barrier of the human body. It is dense and tough, and can resist external evil and prevent foreign bodies from invading. However, hydrogen peroxide is active and has the ability to oxidize. Although the skin has the effect of a barrier, it may be different when encountering hydrogen peroxide.
Researchers have observed that if the skin is intact, it is difficult for hydrogen peroxide to enter the skin in large quantities. Because of the orderly structure of the stratum corneum of the skin, it is not easy for molecules to pass through it. However, if the skin is slightly damaged, or in a special state, in case of warm and humid conditions and abnormal skin metabolism, hydrogen peroxide may be able to take advantage of it.
When it enters the skin, or reacts chemically with various substances in the skin. Oxidation can cause protein denaturation, lipid peroxidation, disturb the normal order of cells, and damage the health of the skin. Light or cause skin redness, itching, severe or ulceration, necrosis.
And the microvessels under the skin are densely packed. If hydrogen peroxide is absorbed through the skin, or flows to the body with the blood, it will affect the ability of the viscera. Therefore, when using hydrogen peroxide, it must be careful. Operators should wear protective equipment to prevent it from touching the skin. If you accidentally touch it, rinse it with water as soon as possible, and seek medical treatment in severe cases.
In summary, hydrogen peroxide can be absorbed through the skin under certain circumstances, causing harm to the human body. The world uses it, and it cannot be ignored.
