Product Description
Denatonium Benzoate
Denatonium Benzoate is widely recognized as the most bitter chemical compound, added to household, garden, and cosmetic products to prevent accidental ingestions. Its use, prevalent in the United States for over two decades, aims to discourage the intake of harmful substances by inducing an intensely bitter taste. Despite its prevalent use, particularly as an alcohol denaturant, studies on its safety are limited and somewhat ambiguous, especially concerning long-term effects and hypersensitivity reactions. With its application encouraged in veterinary settings to protect pets, its overall low toxicity profile is notable, yet caution is urged in specific scenarios where its presence could exacerbate certain risks.
