WARNING - methylchloroisothiazolinone allergy

Postby Chayil_Ishshah » 23 Apr 2016, 15:34

We know of someone that has had an allergic reaction to a preservative called "methylchloroisothiazolinone" or "MI".

Wikipedia states, "It is a powerful synthetic biocide and preservative within the group of isothiazolinones, which is used in numerous personal care products and a wide range of industrial applications.

It is a cytotoxin that may affect different types of cells. Its use for a wide range of personal products for humans, such as cosmetics, lotions, moisturizers, sanitary wipes, shampoos, and sunscreens, more than doubled during the first decade of the twenty-first century and is proving to be a concern because of sensitization and allergic reactions as well as cell and nerve damage.

Industrial manufacturing and distribution of the biocide has resulted in more severe health hazards to the humans involved in the handling of large concentrated quantities of the biocide.

Industrial applications also are quite wide ranging, from preservative and sanitizing uses to antimicrobial agents, energy production, metalworking fluids, mining, paint manufacturing, and paper manufacturing, many of which increase potential exposure to it by humans as well as organisms, both terrestrial and marine. Industrial applications in marine environments are proving to be toxic to marine life, for instance, when the effect of its now almost-universal use in boat hull paint was examined."


We hadn't been aware of this chemical and wanted to bring it out to those that may not know of it either. Here is a website that gives a list of products that contain MI: https://householdproducts.nlm.nih.gov/cgi-bin/household/brands?tbl=chem&id=72

If anyone uses wet wipes please reconsider:

This poor woman, who is allergic to MI, found it was in her MOUTH WASH:

If your baby's diaper rash just won't go away look at the wipes you're using and see if it contains MI.

Just because the FDA says something is okay doesn't mean that it is.

These dermatologists are speaking out against it:

Repent, for the reign of the heavens is at hand.
