  • In addition to its high-quality production process, the lithopone factory also places a strong emphasis on quality control and testing. Samples of lithopone 28-30% are regularly tested in the factory's laboratory to ensure that they meet the required specifications for various applications. This commitment to quality ensures that customers receive a reliable and consistent product every time they purchase lithopone from the factory.
  • Studies have shown that TiO2 nanoparticles can cause cytotoxicity, genotoxicity, and oxidative stress in various cell types, including human lung cells and immune cells. These findings have led to calls for more research into the potential risks of TiO2 in water supplies and the development of guidelines for safe exposure levels.

  • Australian researchers examined how titanium dioxide as a food additive affected gut microbiota in mice by orally administering it in drinking water. The study, published in the journal Frontiers in Nutrition in 2019, found the treatment could “alter the release of bacterial metabolites in vivo and affect the spatial distribution of commensal bacteria in vitro by promoting biofilm formation. We also found reduced expression of the colonic mucin 2 gene, a key component of the intestinal mucus layer, and increased expression of the beta defensin gene, indicating that titanium dioxide significantly impacts gut homeostasis.” The changes were then linked to colonic inflammation, along with a higher expression of inflammatory cytokines, which are signal proteins that help with regulation. The researchers concluded that titanium dioxide “impairs gut homeostasis which may in turn prime the host for disease development.”
