Ingabe i-carboxymethyl carcinogenic?

Abukho ubufakazi bokuthi i-carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) idala umdlavuza noma idala umdlavuza kubantu.

I-International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), okuyisikhungo esikhethekile seNhlangano Yezempilo Yomhlaba (i-WHO) enesibopho sokuhlola i-carcinogenicity yezinto, ayizange ihlukanise i-CMC njenge-carcinogen. Ngokufanayo, i-United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) kanye ne-European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) abakahlonzi noma yibuphi ubufakazi be-carcinogenicity ehlobene ne-CMC.

Ucwaningo oluningana luphenye ukuthi kungenzeka yini umdlavuza we-CMC kumamodeli ezilwane, futhi imiphumela ngokuvamile ibiqinisekisa. Isibonelo, ucwaningo olushicilelwe ku-Journal of Toxicologic Pathology luthole ukuthi ukuphathwa kokudla kwe-CMC akuzange kwenyuse izehlakalo zezimila kumagundane. Ngokufanayo, ucwaningo olwanyatheliswa ku-Journal of Toxicology and Environmental Health lwathola ukuthi i-CMC yayingeyona i-carcinogenic kumagundane lapho ilawulwa ngemithamo ephezulu.

Ngaphezu kwalokho, i-CMC ihlolelwe ukuphepha yizinhlaka ezilawulayo emhlabeni jikelele, okuhlanganisa ne-US Food and Drug Administration (FDA), egunyaze i-CMC ukuthi isetshenziswe ekudleni, kwezemithi, nasezintweni zokugcoba. I-Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) iphinde yahlola ukuphepha kwe-CMC futhi yasungula ukudla okwamukelekayo kwansuku zonke (ADI) okungafika ku-25 mg/kg wesisindo somzimba ngosuku.

Kafushane, okwamanje abukho ubufakazi bokuthi i-carboxymethyl cellulose i-carcinogenic noma ibeka engcupheni yomdlavuza kubantu. I-CMC ihlolelwe ukuphepha ama-ejensi alawulayo emhlabeni jikelele futhi ithathwa njengephephile ukuthi isetshenziswe ngamanani avunyelwe yilezi zinhlangano. Kodwa-ke, kubalulekile ukusebenzisa i-CMC nezinye izithasiselo zokudla ngokuhambisana nemihlahlandlela enconyiwe futhi ngokulinganisela ukuze unciphise noma yiziphi izingozi ezingaba khona.
