What we need to know about a toxic compound: Dibutyltin
The toxic chemical, dibutyltin that is in many things you use everyday. It is a type of organotin compound with tin, carbon and hydrogen. It is used in the manufacture of industrial catalysts, stabilizers and biocides for use across many sectors. As a consequence of this broad use, dibutyltin is found (as metabolic residue) in the eco-system and food web as well as bio-accumulated by organisms raising health concern to human healthlian.
Dibutyltin is well known for its toxic impacts on living organisms and the environment. The environmental impact of dibutyltin has been studied due to its numerous negative effects such as acting as endocrine disruptor that poses risks for aquatic creatures, human and animals. Dibutyltin is absorbed by plants and animals when it enters their environment, which causes the chemical to accumulate in plant material or animal tissues. For example, dibutyltin has been found to induce deformities and decrease the viability of eggs in animals living in water (oysters or shrimp) that play an important role at the base of aquatic food webs.
Dibutyltin is used in many industries and can leach into food chains with far-reaching protection of human exposure. Dibutyltin may also be present in fish, shellfish and other aquatic animals humans consume. The chemical can have different negative impacts on human health, particularly if they come in the form of high levels from seafood consumption like developmental abnormalities, endocrine disruptions and immune suppression. Furthermore, dibutyltin can be present in low concentrations even in meat coming from animals not directly exposed to it.
It is also used in various industries as a stabilizer, catalyst and biocide for example paints, plastics and textiles. But on account of its toxicity and the health problems that come with it, researchers are working to find other possible chemicals replace of dibutyltin for these kinds. Alternatives under investigation include organic stabilizers, biocides and catalysts which pose less of a threat to the environment and human health.
Dibutyltin has been more tightly restricted for use and release in several industrial sectors by regulatory measures. The European Union, for example, prohibited dibutyltin in marine antifouling paints as early as 2003 because of its destructive impacts on aquatic organisms. Several other countries have additionally banned the use of dibutyltin, and there are ongoing moves to harden these regulations. Conclusively, it is important to look for less harmful and safer alternatives of dibutyltin because its toxic effects on the environment as well human health may be continues till future.
