  • In 2017, French researchers from the Institut National de la Recherche Agronomique (INRAE) were among the first to examine the effects of E171 nanoparticles on the body. They fed rats a dose of 10mg of E171 per kilogram of body weight per day, which was similar to human exposure in food. The research, which was published in Scientific Reports, showed that E171 was able to traverse the intestinal barrier, pass into the bloodstream, and reach other areas of the body in rats. Researchers also found a link between immune system disorders and the absorption of titanium dioxide nanoparticles.

  • Titanium dioxide production is not without its environmental impacts. The traditional process involves mining rutile ore, which can lead to significant land disruption and potential pollution if not managed carefully. Moreover, the conversion of raw ore into usable TiO2 requires energy-intensive processes that contribute to carbon emissions. As such, consumers and manufacturers alike are increasingly seeking suppliers committed to sustainable practices.
