Determination of Hydrogen Peroxide Free

Hydrogen peroxide is a mild antiseptic commonly used to prevent infection of minor cuts, scrapes, and burns on the skin. It is also used as a mouth rinse solution to help clear mucus or relieve mild mouth irritation. When this chemical compound is applied to the affected area, oxygen is released. The release of oxygen causes foaming and helps to clean the dead skin and area. However, this compound should not be used to treat deep wounds, animal bites, or severe burns.

Hydrogen peroxide is an oxidizing agent with disinfectant, antiviral and antibacterial activities. Upon rinsing and mouthwash or topical application, hydrogen peroxide displays its oxidizing activity. It produces free radicals that cause oxidative damage to proteins and membrane lipids. In this way, it neutralizes and destroys pathogens and prevents the spread of infection.

Hydrogen peroxide is naturally present in the air as a small amount of gas. It is unstable and easily decomposes into oxygen and water as heat is released. It is not flammable. Hydrogen peroxide is used in low concentrations for many home medical applications or as a clothing and hair bleach. In industry, high concentrations of hydrogen peroxide are used as a bleach for textiles and paper, as a component of rocket fuels, and to produce foam rubber and organic chemicals.

In the test, analysis, measurement and evaluation studies carried out in our organization, national and international standards and applicable legal regulations are complied with and reliable and impartial results are obtained. Among the numerous tests carried out in this context, there are also hydrogen peroxide-free determination services.
