The global top producers of carrageenan are the Philippines and Indonesia. [4] [5] [6] Carrageenan, along with agar, is used to produce traditional jelly desserts in the Philippines called gulaman. [7] No clinical evidence establishes carrageenan as an unsafe food ingredient, mainly because its fate after digestion is inadequately determined. [8]
Carrageenan may prevent HPV and HSV transmission, but not HIV. See Carrageenan#Medical Uses. The phase III clinical trial for carrageenan-based Carraguard showed that it had no statistical effect on HIV infection, according to results released in 2008. The study showed that the gel was safe, with no side effects or increased risks.

Dietary fiber is defined to be plant components that are not broken down by human digestive enzymes. [1] In the late 20th century, only lignin and some polysaccharides were known to satisfy this definition, but in the early 21st century, resistant starch and oligosaccharides were included as dietary fiber components.
Poligeenan is produced by the harsh acid degradation of carrageenan. Carrageenan in solution is processed at low pH (~1.0) and high temperature (90 °C (190 °F)) for up to six hours until the weight-average molecular weight (M w ) has been reduced to the range 10,000 – 20,000 daltons (10–20 kDa).
Skin absorption can occur from occupational, environmental, or consumer skin exposure to chemicals, cosmetics, or pharmaceutical products. Some chemicals can be absorbed in enough quantity to cause detrimental systemic effects. Skin disease is considered one of the most common occupational diseases. [1]
There are several negative health impacts due to the discharge of wastewater containing textile dyes into local water bodies. These health issues include respiratory problems, skin irritation, allergic reactions, and cancer. Some of the respiratory problems that textile dyes cause are coughing, wheezing, asthma, and sneezing.
Skin blisters exemplify this pattern of inflammation. Ulcerative inflammation: Inflammation occurring near an epithelium can result in the necrotic loss of tissue from the surface, exposing lower layers. The subsequent excavation in the epithelium is known as an ulcer.
