احذر ملطف الجو الذي يوجد في أمكن كثيره سواء في البيت او المحلات التجارية
إنه ملطف الجو ونجده في أمكن كثيره سواء في البيت او المحلات التجارية.
يعمل هذا الجهاز ببطارية ويقوم بإخراج رائحة بشكل مبرمج كل دقيقة أو دقيقتين ...ربما أنك تتعجب الآن وتقول هذا مجرد ملطف جو ولكن للأسف الأمر أكبر من ذلك .
:: شرح خطورة الجهاز ::
هل قرأت مرة على أحد عبوات ملطفات الجو هذه العبارة (غير ضار بطبقة الأوزون ) الظاهر أن طبقة الأوزون أهم عند منتجي ملطفات الجو من طبقة الإنسان !
الجهاز يمكن أن يسبّب ألم الصدر، سعال، ضيق تنفّس، والتهاب الحنجرة.
ولأن الأوزون يدخل في مكوناته فقد يسبب أمراض تنفسية مزمنة أيضا مثل الربو وتتفاوت المضار على حسب قدرة الجسم على مقاومة الالتهابات التنفسية و يتفاوت الناس على نحو واسع في مدى تأثّرهم بالأوزون
تنويه ::
الجهاز مخصص لكي يوضع في الأماكن المهوّية بشكل جيد جدا والكبيرة مثل المراكز التجارية وليس في الأماكن المغلقة مثل المساجد.

هذه المنتج لا يرفع من جودة الهواء الذي نتنفسه، ولكنه يضيف عنصراً جديداً من ملوثات الجو، تضر بحاسة الشم، تنشر السموم، تصيب الأنف والرئة بتهيج ثم تؤدي إلي مشاكل خطيرة.
ويدخل في تركيب معظم هذه المعطرات غاز الفورمالديهايد

Danger alert over air fresheners
By Nigel Hawkes
Everyday items which keep homes smelling sweet have been linked to sick children and depression
AIR fresheners and aerosols may make homes unhealthier, research has suggested. Children and their mothers suffered more ill health in homes where these products were in daily use, the University of Bristol’s Children of the 90s study has shown.
But the British Aerosol Manufacturers’ Association said that the research was flawed. “The claims are not justified,” it said.
The study, to be published this week in Archives of Environmental Health, shows that children suffered diarrhoea and earache, while their mothers had more headaches and depression, according to a study of 14,000 households.
As 40 per cent of households use the products found to be responsible, the results have wide implications if confirmed.
They are to be published by a team led by Alex Farrow, now of the School of Health Sciences and Social Care at Brunel University, Middlesex. The team used measurements of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), taken month by month, in the bedrooms and living rooms of 170 households. VOCs have been linked with a number of illnesses.
The team says that the VOC levels in the homes were linked with the use of three products: aerosols, air fresheners and carpet cleaner. They then compared the use of those three products in the whole sample with the incidence of illness.
They found that 32 per cent more babies suffered diarrhoea in homes where air fresheners (including sticks, sprays and aerosols) were used every day, compared with homes where they were used once a week or less. They also suffered significantly more from earache. Air fresheners and aerosols also affected mothers, with those who used them daily suffering nearly 10 per cent more headaches. The most surprising result is the apparent link between maternal depression and air fresheners. Of mothers who used fresheners, 16 per cent reported depression, against 12.7 per cent of those who seldom used them. Dr Farrow said: “Over 40 per cent of families in the study reported using air fresheners regularly. People may think using these products makes their homes cleaner and healthier, but being cleaner may not necessarily mean healthier.
“Air fresheners combined with other aerosol and household products contribute to a complex mixture of chemicals and a build-up of VOCs in the home environment. Pregnant women and babies up to six months may be particularly susceptible to the effects, because they spend around 80 per cent of their time at home. There may also be implications for other groups who are at home a good deal, such as old people.
“More research is needed, but in the meantime it might be safer to limit use of air fresheners and aerosols in the home. Squeezing a lemon is just as effective at freshening the air.”
But the manufacturers’ association said it had been aware of the study for several years and doubted its reliability. The VOC measurements in the 170 homes had been made by the Building Research Establishment and had found that high levels were mainly due to smoking, painting or decorating.
The association then commissioned the Medical Research Council’s Institute for Environment and Health to review the findings. The institute’s report questioned the study’s premise that the VOCs must come from the products identified, and not from other sources.
Its report also concluded that of the associations identified, most failed to show a dose-response relationship — in other words, greater VOC concentrations were not linked to greater health problems. There was no plausible biological explanation to link the products to the symptoms. The institute was also asked to carry out a literature survey for any studies linking aerosols and air fresheners to headaches or migraine, and had found none.
“Alex Farrow’s claims are not justified,” the manufacturers’ association said. “We will of course continue to keep a watching brief on the issue and ensure that if any data shows a cause for concern, it is fully ************uated by our industry.” Chris Flower, director-general of the Cosmetics, Toiletries and Perfumery Association, said: “Cosmetic products such as hairsprays and deodorants are required by legislation to be safe in normal use.
“Aerosol forms of these products are labelled with advice that they should not be used in confined spaces and current evidence shows these products are safe. We shall be looking into the new research to see whether people are following advice and whether additional advice may be required.”
