In a study published in the journal Toxicology, researchers examined the effects of exposing human colon cancer cell line (HTC116) titanium dioxide food additives in vitro. “In the absence of cytotoxicity, E171 was accumulated in the cells after 24 hours of exposure, increasing granularity and reactive oxygen species, inducing alterations in the molecular pattern of nucleic acids and lipids, and causing nuclei enlargement, DNA damage and tubulin depolymerization,” the scientists wrote. Researchers removed the additive from the culture, then examined the results 48 hours later. They found, “The removal of E171 was unable to revert the alterations found after 24 h of exposure in colon cells. In conclusion, exposure to E171 causes alterations that cannot be reverted after 48 h if E171 is removed from colon cells.”

China's titanium dioxide enterprises are currently in the stage of capacity expansion and upgrading. With the recovery of the world economy, Caiqing Technology seized the opportunity to occupy the market, titanium dioxide has been exported to more than 90 countries and regions, and has been recognized and unanimously praised by customers in the United States, Singapore, India, Saudi Arabia, Vietnam, Brazil, and other countries. Our company will continue to increase the research and development of titanium dioxide, and provide high-quality titanium dioxide for various industries around the world.
