What are the Toxicological Concerns with Surfactants?
The toxicity of surfactants varies widely depending on their chemical structure and concentration. Some surfactants, particularly certain anionic and cationic types, can be harmful to aquatic environments and may pose risks to human health if ingested or if they come into prolonged contact with skin. The potential for bioaccumulation and persistence in the environment also raises concerns about their long-term ecological impact.
