Description

Tetrabromobisphenols (TBB) are skin conditioners that are used in the cosmetic industry. They are derived from fatty acids and have a structural formula of C10H8Br4. TBBs have a fluorine atom at their central position and have been shown to react with bacterial strains and produce reaction products, such as hydrogen chloride, calcium carbonate, and carbonic acid. TBBs form hydrogen bonds with the membrane system of cells and affect physiological functions. TBBs are able to penetrate the skin and enter the bloodstream, which can lead to toxic side effects in humans.
