Shock: the more white the contrary, the more dirty sanitary napkin

Sanitary napkin white share of the "drift" out do there was news that a number of lawless elements specialized recycling of used sanitary napkins, and then through a series of washing, bleaching, drying procedures, re-packaging, the last of these "products "sent to some remote rural areas of sales.

As a woman, I have heard the news is really a people can not help the goose bumps emerge. Just imagine, a woman once a menstrual period every month, and even some statistics, a woman to use a quilt swap 15000 sanitary napkins. If these private supplies are so dirty a source of women's health can not bear to think it not tragic?

Fortunately, there are relevant only to stop the fight against the lack of conscience of those businessmen and wrongful acts, but I could not help but think of a question, therefore, sanitary towels bleached white is really "white" manner?

In fact, some sanitary napkin and raw material itself, there is a very white color, do not need to drift; but also because of some sanitary napkins used fluorescent whitening agent and then the white shiny - but we also do not need to hear fluorescence enhancement The mere mention of white agents, because the world there are thousands of kinds of fluorescent brightening agent, of which several are suspected human health hazards, but none for the paper industry; In other words, currently used for papermaking fluorescence enhancement White agent, there is no evidence that harmful.

In fact, the sanitary napkin is not completely sterile, since both difficult to do, there is no need to: blood in itself, with a lot of micro-organisms, according to a study: per gram of blood containing 108 ~ 9 micro-organisms, but generally speaking , there is no harm to human body. Therefore, many brands of sanitary napkins are not specifically disinfection, provided that they meet national requirements of the standard: non-pathogenic bacteria, the number of micro-organisms within a certain range, it will not harm our health.

Of course, there are also some products are sterilized. Note that: disinfection mostly through a chemical gas - ethylene oxide, and afterwards be stored for some time before listing, otherwise, the residual ethylene oxide may cause harm to humans. Countries also have special provisions for the protection of consumer health
