Long Term Effects of Hydrogen Peroxide
Hydrogen peroxide, a common chemical, is widely used in many fields. However, long-term exposure to hydrogen peroxide, its effects cannot be ignored.
Long-term exposure to higher concentrations of hydrogen peroxide can cause many negative effects on human health. First and foremost, in the respiratory system, it can irritate the respiratory tract, causing symptoms such as cough and asthma. If exposed to this environment for a long time, it may cause inflammation of the respiratory tract and damage lung function.
Furthermore, hydrogen peroxide is highly oxidizing, and contact with the skin may cause burns and redness. If exposed repeatedly, the skin may become dry and chapped, reducing the skin's defense function.
In the eyes, accidental exposure to hydrogen peroxide can cause strong irritation to the eyes, causing pain, tears, blurred vision and other conditions. Long-term micro-exposure may also affect eye tissue and threaten vision health.
In addition, in the long run, long-term exposure to hydrogen peroxide may interfere with the normal physiological metabolism of the human body. Its strong oxidative or intracellular oxidative stress response enhances, damages cell DNA, and increases the risk of diseases, such as certain chronic diseases.
Therefore, when using hydrogen peroxide, it is necessary to take comprehensive protective measures. Wear appropriate protective equipment, such as gloves, goggles and masks, during operation to avoid skin, respiratory tract and eye contact. At the same time, ensure that the use environment is well ventilated and the concentration of hydrogen peroxide in the air should be reduced. Only in this way can its benefits be used to minimize the potential harm caused by long-term exposure.
