Antibiotics on clothes: myth or reality?
Photo is illustrative in nature. From open sources.
In recent years, reports have surfaced that some clothing manufacturers are using antibiotics during the manufacturing process to prevent bacterial growth and reduce odor. However, is it possible to have antibiotics on clothes and how can this affect human health?
First, not all antibiotics can be used in the clothing manufacturing process. Some antibiotics can be destroyed by high temperatures or chemicals used in tissue processing. Therefore, the likelihood of antibiotics on clothing is extremely low.
Secondly, even if antibiotics were used in the production of clothing, they cannot enter the human body through the skin. Antibiotics may be effective in treating bacterial infections, but they cannot treat infections caused by viruses or fungi. Therefore, the presence of antibiotics on clothing cannot affect human health.
Third, the use of antibiotics in clothing can have negative environmental impacts. Antibiotics can get into water and contaminate the environment, which can lead to the development of antibiotic resistance in bacteria in the environment.
To avoid the negative effects of the use of antibiotics in the production of clothing, manufacturers must comply with the rules for the use of antibiotics and control the level of antibiotic residues in products. In addition, consumers should choose products from manufacturers that do not use antibiotics in their production.
In conclusion, the presence of antibiotics on clothes is a myth that has no scientific basis. However, the use of antibiotics in clothing production can have negative environmental impacts. Therefore, manufacturers must comply with the rules for the use of antibiotics and control the level of antibiotic residues in products, and consumers must choose products from manufacturers that do not use antibiotics in production.
