Triclosan may be directly applied to commercial HVAC coils, where it prevents microbial growth that contributes to product degradation. [5] In the United States, by 2000, triclosan and triclocarban (TCC) could be found in 75% of liquid soaps and 29% of bar soaps, [8] and as of 2014 triclosan was used in more than 2,000 consumer products.

Triclosan is found in so many consumer products that it is believed that 75% of all Americans have been exposed to it. [38] While research on the health and environmental risks of Triclosan are far from complete, studies have shown it is dermally absorbed and retained in the body and it has also been shown to disrupt biological processes.

Parts-per-million cube of relative abundance by mass of elements in an average adult human body down to 1 ppm. About 99% of the mass of the human body is made up of six elements: oxygen, carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, calcium, and phosphorus. Only about 0.85% is composed of another five elements: potassium, sulfur, sodium, chlorine, and magnesium ...

The human body is the entire structure of a human being. It is composed of many different types of cells that together create tissues and subsequently organs and then organ systems . The external human body consists of a head , hair , neck , torso (which includes the thorax and abdomen ), genitals , arms , hands , legs , and feet .
Microbial species found in soils also bioaccumulate triclocarban. However, the health of these microbes has not been found to be affected by the presence of the chemical. [24] Triclocarban is rapidly accumulated in both algae and adult caged snails. [25] Moreover, triclocarban is more likely than triclosan to bioaccumulate in aquatic organisms ...
