Synthetic detergents (SD) are firmly established in everyday human life. Their production can be considered as an artificial mini ecosystem. In relationships with the environment, the human body shows certain reactions, i.e. a predictable change in the state of health. The technological process of SD production consists of a mixture of raw components at a certain temperature, followed by drying the composition and adding non-thermostable additives. In order to ensure the environmental safety, the production lines at all stages of SD production are equipped with dust and gas cleaning systems. However, it is impossible to fully exclude the influence of the SD components on the human body.
The aim of this work is to study the impact of components of modern synthetic detergents on the human body.
Materials and methods
275 people working at the production of Synthetic Detergents were examined. The examination included: analysis of sanitary and hygienic working conditions, questionnaires, clinical and functional examination using standard methods in compliance with ethical standards; health risk assessment; statistical analysis of the obtained results.
Results
Among the chemicals used in the technological process, there are industrial allergens in the air of the working area such as (formaldehyde, synthetic detergents, enzymes, enzyme-containing aerosol as well as animal and vegetable dust), irritating substances ('aggressive' substances (acids and alkalis), strong-smelling substances (odoriferous substances). Chemical substances are the mixtures of components that can change their biological activity in combination. Out of 275, 27 employers were found to have enzyme-specific antibodies Among them, the content of specific antibodies exceeded the values corresponding to the range 2 Rast-Class in 17 employers. Only 10% of the employers by the number of detected antibodies should be classified as enzyme-sensitized according to Rast-Class.
Conclusion
Long-term contact with synthetic detergents forms a risk to human health.
